Henry Bresciani Obituary

Love you Henry.

Another year without you! So sad not to have you by my side enjoying the golden years. You would love watching our family grow and be so proud of all their accomplishments. I miss and love you so much Henry! Please watch over all of us until we can be together again.

May God bless our Henry! We loved him so much!

June 21, 2020. 15 year anniversary of your accident. It is also Father's Day and I wish with all my heart that you were here to celebrate with your family. We miss you so much! I miss you walking along with me during our golden years. You have missed out on so much. You are loved and remembered by your children, grandchildren and now our three great grandsons. We enjoy telling them all about you. I love you my sweet husband and only wait for when we will be together again someday. Till then I remain your devoted wife. Shirley

Our dear Henry, you will never be forgotten. I can still see those sparkling eyes and beautiful smile. Mom always loved kidding with you. Watch over us and help us live our lives until we see you again. Love, Mary Ann & Tom Lindsay

We will always love and remember Henry. He had shining eyes that expressed love to all who knew him. Keep watching and taking care of us, Henry. We will always miss you.

At this special time of the year I miss your more than ever! On October 26th it will be our 54th wedding anniversary. You are always in my thoughts and forever in my heart.

Another year has passed without you beside me. We miss you so much and talk about all the funny and wonderful times we had as a family. You are loved more than you know. I Love You, Shirley

Henry, I just found out that you are still remembered at the rally car races. Mitchell has raced a couple of times and they honor you before the race. What an honor to have been a part of your life. You are an extraordinary soul that is now rejoicing with Jesus. You are greatly missed and loved. Is that felt? Well it is now! Ha-Ha Love you!

Friends and Family,

It will be one year this Wednesday that our precious Henry was taken from us.

I want to thank all of you that have visited this website and signed the guest book.

Your messages were so appreciated and the stories a joy to read.

Henry was loved by so many people. His children and grandchildren miss him so much. I miss him most of all as he was and will always be the love of my life.

God Bless all of you!

Henry was a kind and generous friend to us. We knew him and Shirley since the days of our kids going to Resurrection Academy here in Fontana. He donated long hours of carpentry and painting jobs to the school and church. We have many laughs with him and Shirley. One Halloween Resurrection had a costume party for the parents. He and Jack and others were the life of that party. We have a snapshot of Henry staring and pointing at Jack's legs which were clothed in pink panty hose. Henry was in an equally funny outfit.We helped Henry and Shirley pack and load the moving truck, that final night they lived here. We were sad to see them go, but we know they both had many happy years together in Colorado Springs. We visited them there years ago, and they also hosted our son David and his family, while they visited them, years later. He was always generous and gracious that way, as is Shirley. He is truly missed by us, and he will always hold a soft spot in our hearts. Jack and Sue with love.

Henry was a good friend at a tough time in my life. I remember him 'nagging' me about how I needed to paint an outbuilding of mine. I just said, yes, I know, but never got to it. One day I showed up at work, and there was Henry, just finishing up painting the building for me. "Oh, I just had some extra paint", he said, "no big deal." Yeah, right, an extra five gallons of paint in just the color I wanted!



I will never forget this gentle soul. I look forward to 'catching up' with him when we meet again.

Dennis Bagenstos (Colorado Springs, CO )

Our deepest sympathy goes out to all. Uncle Henry will always hold a very fond place in our hearts. We will miss his happy go lucky self. I will never forget the time on the farm with everyone exspecially the x-mas we were all snowed in togeather.

Nick and Leanne Maglia (Pueblo, CO )

Oh Henry, How can I ever thank you for all of your work and great advise with my new endeavor. Your dedication to your life, your family and your work has been such an awesome example to those of us "just starting out".

I will never forget when I first met you - Jake was bringing your tools to you when you were doing some work at Aerials.

I hope that I can eventually contribute as much to my family and to the community as you have.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My Dear Shirley, Gerald and I want you to know that our hearts are hurting for you and your family. We loved Henry so much and we will always remember the wonderful times we had on the Farm with you and your family. We pray that with love and prayers, God will help to mend that hole in your heart. We love you Shirley and hope to visit with you this Fall.

Much Love and Blessings..Judy and Gerald

I so saddened by the news of Henry's passing. Shirley, Lori, Chris and Karyn, my heart grieves with you at the loss. Henry taught me so much, I can hardly do any job around my house without using skills he taught me. Every time I paint, I think of him. He even taught me how to drive with my eyes closed (yes,I fell for that one). I miss you guys, and my heart is so sad. He was such a wonderful man, as evidenced by the quality of the children he raised. A more telling lagacy, a man could not leave behind. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

In your time of sorrow, I extend to you and your loved ones my deepest sympathy.

Dear Shirley and family,



It took awhile for me to come to grips with the email I received from Wanda telling of Henry's accident. I was so excited that we would all be together for the reunion. It has been fifty (50) years since we've seen one another. I am saddened to know that you guys will not be there.



Please know that you and your family are in my prayers. I pray for the sadness of Henry's passing to leave your heart. I pray for the joy and happiness of all of the years you spent with him to take over and warm you through and through. I am so proud that you and Henry kept alive the love for each other all these years. You are truly blessed! Henry will be there to greet you when your time on earth is done. In the meanwhile, he is in your heart, will remain there and you will see him each day in your children and grandchildren.



God's love for us is infinite. When times get tough and the feelings are overwhelming, PUSH! (Pray Until Something Happens)and He will see you through it.



I will miss you both at the reunion, and you will always be in my prayers. May God continue his blessings upon you and your family. I will see you again..... someday.



Love, Elva

Dear Sweet Henry,

I will miss you so much and I will also thank you every day for your gracious selflessness and ability to make others around you always feel good about themselves. I can assure you that your hilarious sense of humor and your kind heart lives on through your children and your grandchildren. We have cried a lot in grief, but we have also laughed to the point of tears sharing your stories and reminiscing about all the great times we have had. I am so proud to be part of your family. Shirley has always been a good, kind, and loving friend to me and a fantastic grandmother to both of our children. Your funny, sweet, empathetic, lovely daughter Caryn, your strong, exuberant, giving daughter Lori and her generous, loving husband Tom are all amazing people and I appreciate them all so much. I won't go on about the grandchildren because it would take too many pages, but they are all wonderful people to be very proud of. Chris is my soul mate, my best friend, and has more love in his heart than anyone I have ever known. He is a shining star in my life, just as you were. Your legacy lives on and I will always try to be a better person because of you and your ability to love so much. I will miss you always, "Hendri."

Shirley, Lori, Karen & Chris

Our love and prayers are with you. Henry was loved by all and will be missed. He will always be in our hearts. I have lost a wonderful brother, Kiki I love you always, you are now in a better place with all the angels, mom, real mom, dad, Bob & Chuy. God bless you all.

Dear Shirley Ann and Family,

We cry for all who had Henry in their lives for so many years and have suffered his loss. We laugh with all of you who remember Henry this loving and happy man who loved all of his family and friends.

Henry your Ramirez Raymer family loves you. Kiki our cowboy, God loves you. Vaya con dios, hasta luego.

Shirley and Family,



Terry and I were saddened by the news of Henry’s death.

We know he enjoyed racing and officiating The Hill Climb and PPIR.

Henry will truly be missed.



He is in a greater place and he is rejoicing with the angels.

Shirley our prayers and thoughts go out to you in this time of sorrow.



Always remember reach up for Gods hand is extended and He will carry you through.



We love you,

Shirley and Family:

You will be in our prayers as you travel this difficult time.

My sympathies to the family and friends of Henry. Although I had only met him a few times, I know several who knew him well. I know there will be a void in their hearts now that he is gone.

Henry was wonderful, as though it has been a few years since we saw Henry back in the days of the Super Chevy Club. Henry always had a smile on his face and willing to help anyone. He will be missed greatly. You are all in our prayers.

God Bless

Shirley, Lori, Chris, Caryn and families:



I am so sorry. Henry leaves to you a tremendous legacy for loving his family and loving life! His wonderful sense of humor will be remembered by all of us. You are in my prayers. God Bless You.

Dear Shirley & Family,

We all loved Henry so much and he made all of our get-togethers on the farm so memorable and fun. He always made everyone laugh and have a good time Italian sytle. Henry will be missed by all of us. All of you are in our hearts and prayers.

We have been blessed to know Henry Bresciani for many years and will miss him, but know that he is in a better place than we. I have never met a man that knew so much about cars and was so easy to talk to and laugh with. I am so glad we got to spend a little time with Henry and Shirley just 6 weeks ago at our grandson Marchelo Bresiciani's graduation and boy did we have a good time. We laughed and cried together and I am holding on to those memories. We will all miss you Henry but know you are watching over us from a better place. I am sure the following words are what

you are sending to us.

"If you could see where I have gone

The beauty of this place, and how it feels to know I'm home to see the Saviour's face; To wake in peace and know no fear,just joy beyond compare! While yet on earth you miss me still, you wouldn't want me there--If you could see where I have gone.

Our thoughts and prayers are with Shirley, Chris, Marchelo and family



Love, Howard & Judy Clark

Marietta, Georgia

We were out of town when this tragedy occured. Our prayers go to the family. I knew Henry through the paint store. We will miss him and his visits to our store with Buddy and previously with Jake. There wasn't a nicer guy in this world.

Dear Shirley, Tom, Lori and family,

My deepest condolences on Henry's untimely death. I only knew him for a few years, but he was an incredible man, always with a smile on his face. May the Lord comfort you in this time. I will keep you in my prayers.

Sheri Brown

Cousin Shirley and family,

Dan and I send our love and prayers to you . Henry was a wonderful person, who always seemed to have the joy of living. Love and blessings to you.You are in our prayers.

Your cousin, Dianna

Dear Shirley and Family,



My heart grieves for you at this sad time. You know how much our family loved Henry. I'll always remember his smiling face, and the great pictures he took at our family reunions. He held a special place in all of our hearts--especially Mom--who loved his kidding! I can't believe it, but I dreamt of him on Friday night, and I have never seen such a big, bright, beautiful smile on his face! Now he can make God laugh!



Love all of you,



Mary Ann & Tom

Henry, we share in Shirley's loss.

We, the Ramirez/Raymer family will miss you greatly. You came to live with us early on and you were our 'brother'.

You sometimes made us laugh and sometimes you made us cry, but mostly you made us laugh.

We will always remember 'KiKi'! Like the last reunion you attended with your brother Herb, where we got to see more of you than expected. You did leave us laughing.

We, your aunts and uncles, will look forward to seeing you again.

I sit here at my computor searching for the words to express my deep sorrow and heart break in the lose of this unbelievably great loving man who was not only a friend but once my father In-law. I had the privlage of knowing Henry for over 25 years. We shared so many memories. He was there for the birth of my son his Grandson, Marchelo. I can still see the smile and pride on his face the first time he held his grandson. I saw that same look 6 weeks ago at my son's Collge Graduation. It is an unbelievable gift and privilage to have had the chance to see my great friend only 6 weeks ago, and catch up on old times.To hear that after all these years he still loved me the same,and still had a money clip I'd given him ment so much.I was not surprised though because this was how Henry was. He cared and loved deeply for family and friends.Its hard to imagine a world without this man in it. I will miss him more then I can express.But I will hold on to every memory I have and make it my life's goal to share each one often with my son, who I can say with pride has his Grandfather in him. Henry I love you and feel a peace knowing you are now in a place far better then we all are.Thank you for a life time of wonderful memories. I will miss you and think of you and Love you always. Pam

To Shirley and family;



Words cannot express the sadness that we feel after hearing about the accident. Henry was a very special person and will be missed by many. We had not seen Henry in several years but we considered him a very special friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Shirley & Family,

We were sorry to hear of Henry's accident. We have so many wonderful memories of Henry. He kept the old neighborhood smiling and all our cars running smoothly.

Our sincere sympathy,

Mike & MaryAnn

Henry, we were on-line friends for many years. I will miss you greatly. Love forever, Jac

Henry has been my friend for over 15 years, I loved giving him a hard time about loving his Fords, I know deep in his heart he really was a Chevy guy. Henry was the one of rhe nicest guys I have ever met. My condolences go out to Shirley and the kids, I know he loved you all. I look forward to seeing him again someday, where in heaven they all drive Chevys!!

My sympathy goes out to Henry's family. I Knew Henry for the ten years he was associated with the Hill Climb. He was a good official, and was always available to do anything asked of him. He will be missed.

SHIRLEY AND FAMILY,

OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY FOR YOUR LOSS. HENRY WAS A GREAT GUY, AND EVEN THOUGH WE DIDN'T SEE EACH OTHER OFTEN AT ALL, WHENEVER WE DID, IT WAS GREAT FUN AND LIKE WE JUST SPOKE THE WEEK BEFORE. HE WILL BE GREATLY MISSED AND FONDLY REMEMBERED BY ALL WHO KNEW HIM. YOU ARE ALL IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.

Dearest Henry, Although I have not known you for more than 5 years, I can say I have always loved you, my friend. You will ALWAYS be in my thoughts. I will always remember the wonderful way you joked around.

"Open your Hymn books to page 242!" I miss you Henry.:-(

Henry and I worked the Hill Climb for 8 years together and he is truly missed. You are one of the BEST ! R.I.P.

TO SHIRLEY,AND FAMILY..SO VERY SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS..IT WAS A SHOCK TO HEAR IT WAS HENRY AT THE HILL CLIMB...HE WILL BE MISSED MY LOVE...EILEEN AND ROBERT ROWLAND

Henry will be missed by the Girodo family. His positive attitude and love for life was a gift for anyone who knew him. Henry never had a bad day and always made your day better.God Bless You Henry.

We worked and played with Henry for years in the car club Pikes Peak Super Chevy's and raised ten's of thousands of dollars for Make-A-Wish Foundation of Colorado. Henry was one of a kind. Only one or two people would be brave enough to join a Chevy club while owning a Ford! Our thoughts go out to all those who loved Henry. He will be missed by many.

I am so sorry we do not have this loving soul in our lives anymore. But memories are a wonderful thing. My love to all of this wonderful family.

Shirley & Family



Our thoughts and prayers are with you and the family as you morn the loss of a wonderful man. You and Henry have been great neighbors all these years and have created a tight bond with my Mom and Dad. I know that the loss of Henry is felt throughout in the entire neighborhood. He will be dearly missed by all.

Aunt Shirley & Bresciani Family,

I'm glad I had the opportunity to meet Uncle Henry and speak with him a few times on the phone and through email. I wish I had the same opportunity with all of you. He always spoke very highly of his wonderful family. I deeply regret your loss. It seems as though it has been a devastating loss to everyone. I wish you all comfort in the memories and experiences you shared with him and the fact that a wonderful man will forever be your guardian angel. God bless you all. With love, Jessie

I was very proud to call Henry my friend and if i were able to have a second father Henry would have been my only choice.Henry was one of the best guys that would teach as well as listen to all i will miss him very very much

Henry I know I am not alone when I say you will be missed dearly. Your warm smile and great stories will be long remembered. Bless You.

I will always remember the smile on Henry's face as he told stories of the years hunting excursion with Dave. Carpentry work in our home will be even more special. What a great friend to have !

I knew Henry from our membership in Pikes Peak Super Chevy's car club, where he & I were the only non-Chevy car owners. I will miss his wonderful sense of humor. My condolences to his family.

With our deepest sympathy, Henry will be greatly missed in our hearts

Shirley and family:



I wish I had the opportunity to know Henry because I've heard so many wonderful things about him. I look forward to meeting you all. I want you to know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I was fortunate enough to meet Henry for the first time at halfway picnic grounds during the hill climb in 2002. I was helping with Tami Needham, as a volunteer, and Henry was a person who seemed to be very helpful if I had a question. He will be missed dearly, but God has quite a man in heaven now. Bless you and your familiy in the time of this great loss.

Henry,I will never forget you,you were always there for me and i hope i was for you,hunting will never again be the same without you to tell me all of your Creede stories,I always included you in any type of racing i was involved in because i knew that i had a good man that i could count on thank you Henry and maybe someday we wil once again be chasing Elk together up in the high country or wathcing the sun come up on Pikes Peak.

Henry will be missed by all. He was a great friend and neighbor to my parents and they were always there for each other. I remember Henry as a funny, kind and loving man and those memories will always be with me. Thank you Henry for being you and we will all miss you deeply.

My sympathy and prayers go to all Henry's family. I was one of the responders that was there that day. Just know that God will never give us more than we can handle. God Bless all of you.

I am glad I got to know Henry; he was a good man. I wish I could have known him better. I will miss him...
