Henry Oncken, loving husband, father and grandfather entered into eternal rest on Wednesday, December 21, 2016.

Henry was beloved by all who knew him and brought joy wherever he went.  He attended the University of Houston and received his JD from the Bates College of Law. Henry touched many lives in his career beginning at Humble Oil (Exxon) and through the practice of law with the District Attorney's Office, and serving as Harris County District Court Judge and U. S. Attorney for the Southern District of Texas.  In retirement, Henry proudly worked as a visiting judge in the Harris County Criminal Courts.  He loved the outdoors and looked forward to spending each hunting season with his friends and family.  Generous to the core and loving, honest with unwavering integrity, Henry will be missed by all.

He is survived by his wife Jackie, daughter Leah, son-in-law Jon, grandchildren Nathan and Ava and brothers Bill and Gary.

In lieu of flowers, the family has asked that donations be made to The Gladney Center, 6300 John Ryan Drive, Ft. Worth, Texas 76132.
