Dorothy Henderson Obituary

Dorothy Faye Henderson, a beacon of love and faith, passed away on January 13, 2025, at the age of 92. Born on November 17, 1932, in New Albany, Dorothy's life was one rich with accomplishments, dedication, and unwavering love for her family.

Dorothy was a lifelong resident of Mississippi. Her final days were spent surrounded by the love and care of her family. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Robert Henderson, and her dear sister, Helen Bennett. Dorothy's legacy continues through her devoted son, Brent Henderson, her caring daughter, Sherri Davidson (married to Tracy), her cherished grandchildren, Jordan Smith (Logan) and Kristin Davidson (Jacob), and her treasured great-grandchildren, Latham Reed Smith and Ivy Joycelle Smith.
