Dear Ulla and Family, We would like to extend sincere condolences for the loss of Heinz! He was always so jovial and ready to break into song! We enjoyed his company very much whenever we met at mutual friends' homes. May good memories sustain you over the next while. Sincerely, Gus and Marie

My deepest sympathies on the passing of Mr. Henry Kuess ... losing a father is one of life's saddest moments and I have great empathy for the pain and loss that his children and other relatives and friends are feeling. My message to you is simple ... try and find time each day to see an issue, a situation or just the world through your dad's eyes in the days, weeks, months and years to come, it won't ease the sorrow or your feelings of loss but hopefully it will in time, bring you a sense of reflection and reverence for the world he helped shape, the lessons he taught you (and those you have still to learn or were too stubborn to want to learn ;-) and most importantly, his eternal love for you and his family and friends. You are his living legacy and as such he lives and thrives in each breath you take and each step you make, he is watching and guiding you still to your best choices and decisions. Virtual hugs to you.

Henry was a true gentlemen in every sense of the word. He was a mentor to me early in my career in the insurance business. I will always treasure our talks, his guidance and his advice. Rest in peace, my friend!
