Perhaps we can laugh today when we remember him…… (Note: I had previously posted four large gifs on the same page but smarter people than me suggested I split them for better viewing. That way I can also provide a little background for each one.) Three year old Henry in[…]
While he was doing a Mathematics course at Brown during the summer of 2010, Henry started making a series of black and white “paintings” using black permanent markers on a white canvas. As usual with Henry I have no idea what started it and why, about a year later, he[…]
Its spring 2010 and while preparing for his college applications Henry ruminates about his life and his passions in his typical stream of consciousness style: Well, lets see. I’ll just go down this list. Background: I’m not too unusual here, my family is a mix of Spanish, English, and French,[…]
During a holiday in Hawaii in August 2005 Henry bought a green Na Pali Explorers baseball cap. He had never really worn a hat before. Perhaps he was seduced by the safety of the hard hat he wore during our sugar mill tour. Perhaps he felt it was finally time[…]

Henry and his friends started a new club at Greenwich High School which they called the Fictional World History Club. Apparently each member would invent their own country including name, language, customs and geography and then they would interact creating a new history of the world. The best way to[…]
I remember asking Henry, one year during High School, what he wanted to do for his birthday. Surprisingly he replied that it was all arranged. He was meeting a bunch of friends in Binney Park and they were going to hang out. All he needed was a tarp, some donuts,[…]
