Week 17: Rest in Peace Henry


Dennis' father, Henry Guikema, passed away on Tuesday, March 3rd, which also happened to be his 65th Birthday. His visitiation and memorial service brought people together from all chapters of his life, but the one thing they all had in common was their great respect and love for a good man. Henry was an excellent trial lawyer who worked on behalf of the underdog, his children and grandchildren adored him, and he had many many friends. When Dennis and I announced our engagment to our families, Henry welcomed me into his family and jokingly said "My kid finally did something right!" Henry will be greatly missed by everyone, but especially by his family.
