Henry was a very kind, generous, and loving man and would do anything to help anyone. He enjoyed having neighbors and friends hang out in his garage, firing up the woodstove, and talking about the good old days.

He also spent time In Bremerton, Washington, while In the Navy.
Left to cherish his memory are his two sons: Jonathan Bradley Revere of Warsaw, and Elliott Braxton Revere (Sarai) of Hanover; and his grandson whom he adored: Landen Bryce Revere. He also leaves behind two devoted sisters: Lynn Settle (Glenn), and Peggy Bareford (Donald Ray), and his friend and former wife, Jane Revere. Henry will be dearly missed by all, including many nieces and nephews, as well as other dear friends and neighbors.
