Henry worked for the Ford Motor Company from 1947 to 1951, and in 1952, he went to work for Lake Shore Inc. and retired in 1982. After retiring Henry became an integral part of his son's restaurant, Romagnoli's. He very much enjoyed his time there cooking and visiting with many family members and numerous friends.
