Hank taught in Northport-East Northport UFSD for 35 years, was an adjunct assistant professor at Suffolk Community College and Dowling College, and was a founding member of the Continental Mathematics League. He and Eileen, his wife of 64 years, had four children – Jacqueline Hull, Suzanne Wolff, Christine Cognetti, and the late Lawrence Hull. One of Hank’s greatest joys was his seven grandchildren.
