She was born March 9, 1938, in Caracas, Venezuela, to Guillermo and Dorothy Pence Aranguren. On Sept. 14, 1958, in Warsaw, she married David L. Henderson, who survives.
She was a 1957 graduate of Warsaw High School and a graduate of Kokomo Business College. She worked at the U.S. Postal Service for 25 years, retiring in 2000 as the Post Master of the Claypool Post Office.
She was a charter member of the Warsaw Altrusa. She enjoyed traveling with her husband and together they were able to make trips to different areas of Europe as well as Japan, Alaska and Jamaica. She was an avid reader. She loved planting and caring for a variety of beautiful flowers as her health allowed; but most of all she loved spending time with her children and grandchildren who in return loved her very much. She will always be loved and greatly missed.
