My deepest condolences go out to the family. Hank you will be truly missed. I was coming home this weekend and planning to stop in to check on you. Always positive conversations with you my friend. For well over my 20 year military career you made sure I was right when I got to come back home. Hard to hold back the tears and emotion brother. You were loved and will always be apart of my family. God bless and may you rest in peace.

My deepest condolences to the Poydras-Lands family, especially, my amazing, loving brother in-law, Allen, and his siblings, Bobby and Desiree who have become like my own family. We are all too familiar with the hurt of losing a parent and pray for a peace that surpasses understanding for both you and all your siblings. Rest assured that you all undoubtedly have TWO guardian angels, your father and Chris, who are reunited in heaven and watching over you all. ❤

Sending my sincere condolences to the family. Grief can be so hard, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one today and always. As a classmate, I will always remember Hanky whenever someone calls me Cabbage. This is the nickname Hanky gave me while we were clowning around in Chemistry class around the 9th or 10th grade at Southern Lab. I was recently told that he was planning to surprise us at our 40th Class Reunion next month. We would have loved to have seen him. Rest In Peace classmate. Class of 1979 ❤

To the Family:
EARTH has no sorrow that HEAVEN cannot heal. Take pleasure in the beautiful memories that I'm sure you have of Hanky! I'll always remember his visits to my home and the laughter we shared with him and his great friend Flip.
Look to GOD for strength now and always. To live in the hearts of those left behind is not to die.
