Interment will at the new graveyard at God's Lake Narrows Manitoba. The memory of Henry's dear wee ways will linger with us all our days. Sweetest flower, too sweet to stay, God took him home to show us the way. Time rolls on and we are reminded of the day our hearts were crushed, when God took you oh so quickly, and we in gloom, were thrust. In the bud of life, death claimed you, in the prime of childhood days, but we hope some day to meet you and be with you always.
