How very sad to learn of Hank's passing.

I truly looked forward to visiting with Hank at each of the IHRA races I attended. He always made me feel that he was glad that I was there competing. He was also very patient with me when I would eventually need some assistance, and he never lost his temper, not once! A wonderful guy who I will always miss. Rest in peace, Hank.

My condolences to the Blankenship Family.

Hank was a wonderful friend and tech man. My daddy and Hank have so many great memories together. I always loved sitting around listening to them tell all their tales from years past. Hank will be truly missed! God Speed Buddy
