I am truly sorrow for your loss, Henry was a good man, up standing in the community and among friends. Henry supported his father to the end. He drove friends to doctor's appointments and helped others in need. If there are Corvettes in Heaven, the Lord will place Henry in that group. He admired driving this machine. I've known Henry and his brother Willie for a very long time and became close to Henry because of being a Corvette owner too. We trailed each other to many car shows. Henry's smile and good deeds will be missed. The Henry Parker Family, please understand he's in a better place. Melvin Carver MM'68
