My sympathies to the family. I remember when the Knudsens lived across the corner from us by Bliedorn. Henry would take my brother and I to catch minnows in the creek or fishing. He'd take us through the road ditches with his old jeep duece and half. He painted my bicycle. I used to help him pick up bales. We kept in touch over the years. Kathy worked for me in the seed fields and was a chip off the old block. He was a good friend and neighbor and will be missed.
To Henry's family. The one thing that I always thought was special about this Man was that he always remembered me no matter how much time over the years would go by. If I would run into him around town he would always say Hi Kibby. You see his son Jim and I went to school together and ran around and stay in touch to this day even though Jim and Tami are in Florida. I would run into Henry at Burger King or some other place around Clinton and he would always yell over to me and we would talk about the old days. He always had a smile and a kind word. He was a very very good Man and will be missed greatly. My wife Velda and I wish the whole family are very warmest heart felt love and sympathy. Love and Prayers from Kibby and Velda Kibler
To Henry's family and Aunt Bee, we cannot tell you how incredibly sorry we are for your loss... Henry was such a sweet, thoughtful and loving man... he dearly loved his children and Grandchildren and was the perfect partner for our Aunt Bee. We will dearly miss our monthly "breakfasts" and the time we spent together. (not to mention all the teasing!) We are also so grateful that our Aunt Bee finally found the love of her life and the love of your family. Forever in our hearts, Bert Abbott and Chris Rich and families

My husband Jeremy Pribble worked with Henry on the railroad. Jeremy said that Henry taught him so much . They both loved the swing bridge in Clinton. I loved listening to them share stories about the bridge and the railroad. We both thought the world of Henry. There will always be a special place in our heart for him. We shared some great times with Henry and B. Henry spoke to everyone, he loved life , made everything fun and interesting and really enjoyed sampling everyone’s food when we went to restaurants. He had such an appreciation for everything and we loved that about him. We will miss him so much and we are so thankful to have known him . We are blessed with some wonderful memories of the the time that we all spent together. FOREVER YOUNG , we love you Henry
