Henry (Hank) Aldershoff, 89, passed peacefully with his son at his side in the home he constructed for his family and lived in most of his life. He was born on October 6, 1917 to Henry D. and Anna Aldershoff of Glenville. His favorite song "You are my Sunshine" was a direct reflection of his predeceased wife of 60 years, Evelyn V. Aldershoff, and his love of flowers.

He served in the Yellow Arrow, 8th Infantry Division, European Theater and fought in the Battle of the Bulge and other Berlin Battles. He was a craftsman who worked for local contractors like Robert Van Patten and ended his working days at Rotterdam Ventures.

Survivors include two sons, David B. and wife, Barbara of Schenectady and Dennis M. of Rotterdam; and daughter, Bonnie Marette and husband, Michael of Minnesota; four grandchildren; a sister, Frances Halsdorf; a brother, Garrett Aldershoff and wife, Della; a sister, Mary Relyea; sister-in-law, Mary Aldershoff; and several nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews. Henry was also predeceased by siblings: John Aldershoff, Anna (or Ann) Adams and Elsie Hanson (or Hansen).
