Thinking of the family and friends at such a difficult time. May the love and tender mercy of God surround you all during this time of sorrow. "The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms." Deuteronomy 33:27

Like so many have said and will say, we lost a great man and friend. My stories and memories of Rob are so vivid in my head, that I will cherish them forever. A lot of those involve coaching basketball together and wine, but many others involve the Henke family and how special they are.
Our prayers and thoughts are with Ellen, Jimmy, Kristen and Danielle.

Dear Henke Family,

My heart is with you as I send my sincerest condolences.

My favorite memory was when Rob helped put together a hotwheels toy for Seth last Christmas. It took him all of 2 minutes to put this set together whereas it would've taken me about 20 minutes! Seth's eyes just lit up with happiness as he played hotwheels with Rob (I think Rob was a kid at heart, too!).

Please know that you're in my thoughts & prayers. God

Rob,
You will be missed by all who knew you. Your sly smile and quick wit I'll always remember. You were a great guy. Your whole family made such an impact on me growing up. The Henke's were always the best, and you, like your father before you, were just an awsome guy. You introduced me to to a whole new world of chili, years ago, and some of my fondest memories were going to Nero's to see you. You were

Words cannot express the sadness we feel upon hearing of the loss of sweet Rob. The entire Henke family are special people who were always close and enjoyed each others company. Our memories go back to the late 70's with them and through all those years family has always been very important. We know God's comfort at times like this will help but the most comfort comes knowing Rob is with our Lord and Savior.

To the Henke Family

Even way back in pre-school, I knew that you were a special family. My prayers and love are with you at this time.

I cannot begin to imagine the grief you are going through at this moment. I myself have three children and I know how much his children meant to Rob. I am a supplier for one of the brands in his portfolio at Heartland Vintage Wines, and I remember how many stories Rob and I shared about our children when I worked with him on my last visit. Like any good father he was so involved in every aspect of his
