Back in the late 70s and early 80s, I worked at the John D Brush Co and Henry was our manufacturer’s rep for Sentry Safes in upstate New York. Part of my job was supporting the reps in the area and I always enjoyed working with Henry. He had a great sense of humor and worked diligently to make the sale. I am sorry for your loss.
