Henry Ritze Mulder died peacefully surrounded by his family on April 12, 2025. Henry was born in Schomberg, Ontario on March 31, 1952 and was predeceased by his mother, Alice Snippe, father Henk Mulder and sister Pauline (Al). He leaves to mourn his loss and cherish his memory, his partner of fifty plus years, Michele, son Jesse (Sarah Hebert) and grandson Kaspar, daughter Sara (Jesse Massumi), brother Ronald (Pam), sister Linda, numerous nieces and nephews, and a community of friends and colleagues with whom he worked and played over the years.

Henry's infectious smile and willingness to help others permeated every aspect of his life. To have known him was to witness true generosity and selflessness. To have known him was to love him.

Henry faced his diagnosis and subsequent death with grace, dignity and courage, the way he lived his life. At his request, there will not be a funeral, but a celebration of Henry will be held at a future date.

Donations in Henry's memory can be made to the Canadian Gastric Cancer Association (gastriccancer.ca/donate) or a charity of your choice.
