Henry was an accomplished athlete, competing at a national level in pole vault in his younger day. He was an avid curler, and competed in many bonspiels, one of his favorites being the Butterfly Bonspiel in Creston. He also liked to ski and play the piano. He loved the outdoors and took his children on many trips into the mountains around Invermere. In his later years he enjoyed spending time with his six grandsons.
