My Fellow Dunmoreans,

It is with a heavy heart and deep sadness that I share the news that legendary Dunmore football coach Jack Henzes has passed away. We mourn the loss of a remarkable man who not only shaped the Dunmore football program, but also touched the lives of so many in our wider Dunmore community.

His accomplishments and accolades on the gridiron are too lengthy to mention here…he was as legendary on the field as any you can find in Pennsylvania. Arguably his greatest accomplishment, however, was his success in building strong, responsible, and compassionate individuals. The mark Coach Henzes left on his players’ lives was felt long after they left the halls of Dunmore High School; and many of his former players have gone on to make meaningful contributions to our area and our Nation. For that we will always be grateful.

We will always be appreciative of the positive impact Coach Henzes had on so many in our Borough. Our entire Borough Government and I wish to extend our deepest sympathies to his family, friends, and loved ones at this difficult time.

May Coach Henzes rest in peace knowing that his legacy will be forever engrained in the fabric of our Dunmore Community. In the words of Coach Henzes, “Once a Buck, Always a Buck!”
