Subject: Dennis Henzi
From: gramma1011@gmail.com

I am Dennis Henzi's little sister and I don't know when you were last in contact with him, found your name on one of my older brothers email's. I just wanted to inform you he passed away on Oct 4, 2011, still have not recieved the autopsy reports but think it may have been a stroke. If you can pass this information on to any one who may want to know. I sent a message to  2 different emails he had for Pat Rankin but haven't heard anything back  so I don't know when he last communicated with any of his army buddies. The army was his life even though he only spent 2 years there, we always said he should have made a caeer of it.

April 2003   
James Louis Tomasulo Jr.  
Deceased -April, 2003  
Jimmy was a very devoted family man, to his wife of 30 years, Linda, and his 4 children, Jenny, Lori, Katie and Jimmy. He put in over 25 years of service for the Federal Postal Police in Newark, New Jersey, often working in liaison with the DEA and the Newark PD.
 
Jimmy passed away in April of 2003 after fighting the cancer brought on years later from exposure to Agent Orange in the jungles of Vietnam.  He was awarded two bronze stars for valor and received two Army Commendations during his tour of duty. It is tragic that such a young man of 53, who served his country valiantly and proudly, a family man still in the prime of his life, would be cut down finally by the actions of the government he swore to protect and defend.  He was much more than my brother-in-law; he was my friend and my brother, my buddy, MY family.
