Henry married Agnes Hunt on November 12m, 1956 and they are the parents of five children: Greg Marquis, Ph.D., Professor of History, U.N.B., St..ohn Joanne Marquis Charron, B.B.A., Director Adult Education. Jane Craig, B.Sc., Computer Sc., Computer Architect. Janice Marquis, Health Services Department, U.B.C. Jennifer Fogarty, B.B.A., Computer Services.

Henry says that the other significant occurrences in his life since graduation from St. Dunstan’s are his six grandchildren, the seventeen years he vas a lecturer at U..N.B. Law School , becoming Vice President of the Junor Chamber of Commerce for the Atlantic Provinces and his having become functionally tri-lingual adding French and Spanish to his language skils.

For his leisure time activities Henry enjoyed golf, and has spent considerable time in reproducing antique furniture. He was very involved in a Wide variety of social, charitable, religious and professional organizations and carried on these responsibilities to the time of his death which came rather suddenly on January, 6‘”, 2001.

His most memorable recollection of events at St. Dunstan’s was the celebration related to Frank Sigsworth’s passing of his Math 1 course after many tries. This consisted in the burial of Frank’s math textbook at the center of the Rugby Field. Another, event which crystallized Henry’s decision to go into law was a mock trial where he was accused of killing the Bursar’s pig with a dirty look. Elmer (Skinny) MacPhee was the prosecutor and Ernie Smith was Henry’s defense counsel. History has not recorded the outcome of that trial but Henry’s subsequent career choice leads one to believe that it turned out badly for him.

Agnes says: “Hank loved his years at St. Dunstan’s. He also loved golf and in May 1999 Hank and his golfing buddy, Cyril Oram, retired Police Chief, each had a hole-in—one in the same hole on the same day at Rockwood Park Golf Course. That was a highlight for them. In 1990, we visited Kilmovee, County Mayo, in the West of Ireland and found my father’s homestead still standing. In 1995 we traveled to the village of Lacaune in the south of France, 40 miles from the Spanish border. This was the area Hank’s ancestors lefi in the 1600’s to come to Quebec. He discovered at that time his name was originally “Henri Canac dit Marquis” (royalty) .”
