    I joined MSI after speaking with Henry at a Carroll County fireman carnival.



    I'm sure I sounded like an idiot to him, but he convinced me we could name a difference.



    I, and we, all owe Henry a debit we can never really repay.



    And never discount the Herculean efforts of Norton, and dblas, as past presidents, nor the mighty work of current president esquappelate (sp?)



    G-d bless you all



    In Pace Requiescat Henry
    I'll drink to this! And to HH, may his memory be a blessing.

    Don't forget Patrick as well.

    I was but a small part in a larger movement.

    Without Henry, there’d be no MSI. He and a handful of like minded people had a vision, and made it happen.

    It’s always dangerous to list players from memory, and this is only a partial list: Steve Dirlik, Ed Patrick, Phil Lee, Don Hoffman, Charlie Guggenheimer, Mark Wilson, Steve Naylor.

    I joined MSI in 2005, and am proud to have served in some small way.

    Rest In Peace my friend.

    Don't sell yourself short, you have ben a wealth of information and guidance.

He’d pull up get to work and he was like a machine the horses loved him! He call out pick ip your leg and they would it was just amazing he knew their names and what they liked. So sorry to hear he passed very nice man. God bless him forever.

    For me, Henry provided a way to do something about the most frustrating lack of Gun Rights action in Annapolis and DC. I suspect many, if not all, on this partial list, felt the same way. Just showing up on gun bill days was only a starting point. A coordinated effort to meet and speak to our legislators to encourage those on the pro-Gun Rights side, and confront the anti-gun side too.

    When thousands came to fight against the anti-gun bills in numbers Annapolis never saw before, I was so proud of all of our efforts. Also saddened by the limited results we obtained, and the frustration of Froshing results in the legislative sessions that came afterwards.

    Now that the anti-gun paradise of violent criminals “get out of jail” Soros-backed Attorney Generals and prosecutors are driving record gun sales, one can only hope a level playing field appears this legislative session.
