Hank Drude, class 2006 - We will miss him


Our dear friend and classmate Hank passed away on July 11, 2009, after a courageous fight with a cancerous tumor. Hank , for those who met him, was above all a good friend . Always encouraging, always with a good word and a smile, he won all those he met. He followed what he learned at IYRS by working in Mystic restoring ROHAN , a wooden trawler and taught introduction to boat building to young people in the summer at IYRS.
Hank is survived by his wife, his 4 children and 4 grand children. We will remember him.
