World
Champions - The Boston Red Sox!
Hank, a native of Salem, Mass and an avid
fan bragged endlessly about his favorite
team. A gruaduate of Bentley College in Waltham
(where he met his lifetime sweetheart, Suzanne)
with a BS in Marketing & Management,
he went on to work with his dad for six years
and build a large telecommunication business.
Hank says "we worked by my father's motto
- Just Do It! I can honestly say my father
was my mentor."
Hank and Suzanne and daughter Jessica moved
south in 1991 and after working for two telecommunication
companies locally he decided to be the entrepreneur
he always wanted to be. Hank opened Communication
Solutions (1999) to "enhance and improve
the way people communicate."
In 2000, former Casselberry mayor, Bruce
Provonost sponsored Hank to the Rotary Club
of Casselberry. He says "Rotary has been
one of the most rewarding experiences...each
week, I eagerly look forward to share a Rotary
Minute with club members."
From 2003-2004, Hank led the club as President
having been recognized as Rotarian of the
Year by President Carlos and recognized by
Rotary International with the Four Avenues
of Service Award. He is a Paul Harris Fellow
(awarded to him by the club), serves as director,
Interact coordinator (Lyman H.S.) and is
totally involved with all of the club activities
in one shape or form.
Hank and Suzanne are now bridging the next
phase in their lives as their daughter graduates
from high school and goes to college. Hank
has been her coach for most of her growing
years and says "coaching my daughter and
her team mates was one of the best activities
in my life."
