Willie L. Henderson was born July 17, 1948, and passed from this life on May 6, 2025.
He is with Jesus now and in pain no more. Irene, his wife, was with him until the end. Our Pastor Garland Moore was here to do a final blessing for Willie. Special Prayer Warrior Kellen Moore and Linda are such a comfort to our family. All our church family are a wonderful support.
Willie loved Jesus and his church and did so much as a Deacon and Jack of all trades. He assisted with the baptisms, did the sound system, microphones, and took care of anything else that needed attention. He will be missed, but we will see him again someday. I know that the Father already has him working in Heaven.
Willie was preceded in death by his father, mother, two brothers, three sisters, four children, and two grandchildren.
He is survived by his wife, Irene, and two children: Pamala Henderson and Jim Valdez, three granddaughters and six great-grandchildren.
Three sisters: Agatha Matthews, Gaiter, Miss.; Jessie Mae and Willie Grove, Hope Hull, Alabama; and Patricia and Anthony Hall, Pass Christian, Miss.
Many nieces and nephews and so many beloved friends. With special thanks to our adopted daughter, Evelyn Mirabal, for all you do. A memorial is planned for Willie on May 24th at Immanuel Baptist Church, 917 Valencia. Time for gathering 1:00 pm on May 24th.
