| Aunt Harriet, Judy and Jim, and Jim and Sue and all my second cousins: We would like to express our deepest sympathy to you on the loss of Hank. Even tho I was the youngest of the cousins and closer in age to my second cousins I have very fond memories of our holiday times spent together. We were out of town this past weekend and unable to attend the visitation or funeral. Please know that you all have been in our thoughts and prayers.

| Henry was a senior associate at Miller Johnson when I joined the Firm in 1975, and he made partner shortly thereafter. He was an early mentor to me, and for many years later was a friend with whom I enjoyed tipping a few at the Pen Club while bouncing around ideas on cases we were involved with. May you, his family, be comforted in this time of sorrow. He was a smart, creative lawyer, but most of all a prince of a guy. Rest in peace, HLG. |

| To Henry's children: You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your father. I worked with Henry when my late boss and brother-in-law, Dan Murray, and he were partners. Henry was always so kind and polite to me and I know Dan respected him as an attorney and friend. He offered my children and I use of his cottage for a week a couple of years and we all have wonderful memories of the fun we had. I appreciated it very much because vacations for a single mom with three kids in those years just weren't in the cards. He was always fun to talk to whether on the street or on the phone and always helpful to me when I had a question about a case or Court procedure. When Dan became ill last year, Henry helped Dan with several of his cases by going to Court for him. He was willing to do anything to help him. When Dan passed away, Henry called and said he would help in any way he could and he did take over many of his cases. He gave me advice on what to do and who to call on others. I am very grateful for all of his help. I just wanted you to know what a kind and thoughtful man your father was. We will all miss him. |

| I wanted to send my condolences on the loss of Mr. Guikema. Your family may not know me. My mom, Sandy Beurkens, worked for Mr. Guikema when he worked with my Uncle, Dan Murray. We didn't have much back then, but Mr. Guikema let us use his family's cottage on lake michigan free of charge for one week during summer, something we never would have been able to do otherwise. I look back on those trips with such fond memories and am grateful for the opportunity Mr. Guikema gave my family. I just wanted you to know how much this still means to me. It's comforting to know Uncle Dan has a pal in heaven now.
