Jim Sadowski – President, USASA: 

“I have read the many tributes to Hank by others, which are all spot on.  He was a beloved figure for many reasons –far too many to list — including his unwavering dedication to improving the game and to those around him. I have a fond memory of one of the many inspiring speeches that Hank gave, when he reminded everyone that in the word “American” is “I can”.  Although Hank is no longer with us, his legacy will live on forever.  Hank will be deeply missed.”
