By -
Jim was born in Marion on May 2, 1947, to Elmer Henry and Velma Ellen Goble Henderson.

Henderson, of Milford; and Jamie Mason; seven grandchildren: Ashley, Ezra, Cody, Jessica, Katie, David and Dalton; and a great-granddaughter, Bella.

He was preceded in death by his parents; a brother, Richard Henderson; and a grandson, Cameron Nichols
Visitation will be today, Nov. 13 from 3 to 7 p.m. at Mishler Funeral Home and Cremation Center, Milford.
