Arrangements for his cremation were entrusted to Strickland Funeral Home & Crematory, 211 W. Third Street, Wendell, NC.

The family is asking for thoughts and prayers as they grieve. Respectively, a memorial service will not be held.  Instead, the family encourages those who wish to make a charitable donation, to a charity of their choice, in Hank’s honor.
