So very sorry for your loss Addy. I know how much you loved your daddy. My heart aches for you. I’m so happy that you were able to be with him when it was his time to go HOME. I hope that you are able to find some peace and comfort in your heart knowing he is now with your brother Randy. So just remember that this is not goodbye….it is so until you meet again.

Jim and Kathy Dix and the Henderson fa says
We would like to express our condolences for Sam.He was like a brother too all the family. He would always tease mom from eating the bacon 🥓 to teasing her about Janet wanting dad. He was the brother that was right beside you when you needed someone. I was not old enough to remember anything except everyone told me he got a yellow dress for Easter that mom could not buy for me. I know in the last few years he would have been right beside us if he was around for myself, (Kathy Henderson),and husband ,Jim Dix
