September 30, 2026 – September 30, 2026

Henry Bradford Uko, of Gardner, Kansas, passed away on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kansas.

Henry was deeply loved from the very beginning. After years of hoping to grow their family, his parents, Thomas and Jenna Uko, were overjoyed to be expecting their first baby. Henry was eagerly anticipated, and his parents looked forward to the life they would share with their little boy.

Henry was delivered and passed away on September 30, 2026, at 15 weeks of pregnancy. Although his parents never got the chance to meet him, Henry made Thomas and Jenna parents and will forever hold a special place in their hearts. Just one day before Henry’s delivery, his parents celebrated their seventh wedding anniversary.

Henry will always be their first baby and beloved son. From the moment Jenna learned she was pregnant, she had a feeling in her heart that her baby was a boy. Learning she was carrying Henry confirmed what she had always felt. His family had so many hopes and dreams for the life they would share with him. His grandfather, George, eagerly looked forward to taking his first grandson to the lake and spending time together on the family boat, making memories they had all hoped to share. Although they never got the chance to watch Henry grow, their love for him is everlasting. He will always be remembered and deeply loved by his parents and family.

Henry is survived by his parents, Thomas Bradford Uko and Jenna Caitlyn (Beckerle) Uko, of Gardner, Kansas; his grandparents, George and Stacy Uko, of Overland Park, Kansas, and Marcus and Heather Beckerle, of Clermont, Florida; his uncles, Michael Uko, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and Andrew Uko, of Overland Park, Kansas; and his aunt, Katie Beckerle, of Clermont, Florida.
