Mrs. Henzel as I knew her was one of the kindest, gentlest soul you could ever meet. I will always remember her from the days that I sang in a band with her son Jerry. She would always go out of her way to feed us during practice and I as the only girl in the band would go and chat with her while the guys sat around chatting together. My deepest condolences from my family and myself. I truly know what a hard time this is for all of you because the loss of a mother is never an easy one. It has been 2 years since my mother passed away and although it does get easier, the pain will always be there. May Mrs. Henzel Reast in Peace. Vichnaya Pamyat! - Posted by: Sonia Szelemej (nee Zajac) (An old friend) on: Dec 03, 2014
