A graduate of Marquette University in 1956, Hank served in the Army in Nuremburg, Germany for two years. Returning home, he married and worked for GMAC and started his own floral business.

Following retirement, he loved spending time in Elhart Lake, Wisconsin, and Naples, Florida.

Hank had a joyful soul and a deep Catholic faith. He thrived on the company of friends and family. He loved the Packers, Notre Dame, reminiscing about the old Brady Street neighborhood and a good hamburger with fried onions. He leaves behind many admiring friends in Florida and Wisconsin, particularly at the Congregational Home, where he lived for the last five years.
