 Not a day goes by that I don't think of Henry & the Rabel family & how they made my life so much richer with your hospitality, kindness & laughter. My prayers are with you all! You forever have a piece of my heart. A great big piece of the blue sky is missing without him in this world. Surely he is bar-b-qing with my Dad & singing in heaven today!

                                                                                   Kathi Miller Schoech

Ms. Jane,  Pop just sent forwarded me a message telling of the sad news.  I must say that I'm quite saddened to hear of Henry's passing.  I was always fond of both of you and looked up to him quite a lot.  I'll always remember his jokes and stories and I'll never forget his laugh.  Please know that I'm including you, Kelly, Burt, and Blake in a special prayer asking that each of you find peace and comfort in your grieving process.  Growing up with you as my neighbor, you all touched my life deeply.  Love to all...Willie Arnwine

Jane and Family,
I pray that God will give you comfort and peace at this time.  I worked with Henry for many years at Celalnese and talked to him last as he was walking at the Chemcel Park.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Not sure if you remember me Jane, Jim Geary from K-ville. I was deeply saddened to hear about you loosing Henry, he was a good man. I always considered both you as my friends even though I came to Clear Lake to work for Celanese in 1971. I know he will be missed by many and I did enjoy a phone call conversation with Henry last year while in town making sausage. God Bless You and I hope you cherish the mamories ya'll had together.

Jane and family, Ross and I will miss Henry.  He was the cornerstone of the family-a faithful and devoted servant to God and his family.  Under that tough exterior, was a wise and loving man.  We will miss his stories, his advice, and his prayers. We will also miss the fun we had together!  He took with him alot of good memories.
