In 1953 he met the love of his life Betty. In 1955 he started to build their house on a lot given to him by his parents across the road from their farm on Taunton Road. On June 23, 1956 he married Betty.

Henry worked at GM for several years on the tools & then rose to become first a group leader and then a maintenance foreman. He retired at 54 with 30 years service.

GM was very good to our family and provided us a good livelihood.

In retirement Henry worked for several years as an electrician for many neighbours.

Henry & Betty were members of Zion United Church for many years but changed to St. Andrews in Bowmanville later. We made many good friends in both congregations & thank God for all the many good life messages we received there.
