Henryk was born in Dobromil, Russia and lived in Poland prior to settling in Bristol. He was the son to the late Feliks and Kazimiera (Sokol) Szafran.
He was a member of St. Stanislaus Church, Bristol and had recently been employed by New England Tools Automation as a machinist. He had a great work ethic and always found time to help his family with his many ‘handyman’ traits. He enjoyed spending time with family and friends and especially fishing with his grandchildren. A light hearted man, he had a loving and gentle nature and a sense of humor to go with it.
In addition to his loving wife of 39 years, Halina, he will also be dearly missed by his two daughters: Elzbieta Kosciukiewicz and husband Marcin of Bristol and Izabela Winiarczyk and husband Marek of England, his precious three grandchildren: Jason, Victoria and Szymon and a brother, Stanislaw Szafran and wife Celina and family in Poland..
