Henry was employed by Alfred Manufacturing and later joined Texas Bolt as supervisor until his retirement. He returned to Chappell Hill to enjoy retirement.

Henry’s smile would light up any room and his jokes were enjoyed by all. He enjoyed playing dominoes, fishing, hunting, gardening, and making pickles, sausage and kishka. Henry always looked forward to seeing his friends at St. Stanislaus 50+ Club meetings. Henry was very proud of his Polish heritage and taking part in Polish festivals and listening to Polish music. He was a loving father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, and treasured time spent with family. Grandchildren spent every summer with him. Whenever they’d ask, he would take them fishing and on boat and tractor rides. Henry is preceded in death by his parents, wife Leonarda and son-in-law Dominic “D.J.” DiPrimeo, Jr.

Henry is survived by his loving family including: daughters, Mary Lowe and husband Dennis of Houston, Natalie DiPrimeo of Cypress; grandchildren, Amber Hibdon and husband Collin, Nora Lowe and fiancé Jacob Bigley, and Hannah DiPrimeo; great grandson Lyle Hibdon; brothers, Pete Mazurkiewicz and wife Pauline, Alois Mazurkiewicz and wife Liz; numerous nieces and nephews.
