Loyde Henderson,
Celebration for a Great Soldier of God
gone home.
Loyde Henderson, 80, of Blairsville, GA, has
cashed in his
paid in full one way ticket on Sunday, January 29th, 2012. Loyde’s
life was one full of love for God, his wonderful wife of fifty-seven
years, and
loving children and grandchildren.
Loyde served as a faithful deacon for over
forty-four
years. He was the best husband and most loving daddy anyone could have
asked
for. He always loved to spoil his grandchildren and
great-grandchildren. He was
also a great leader and role model for his children and their spouses. Loyde was a man who believed that you have to
stand for
something or you will fall for anything. To know him was to love him,
and if
you were his friend you had a friend for life.
He
was preceded in death by his loving grandchild, Derrick Whitmore;
parents,
Howard and Lori Henderson; brothers, Bass, Bob, Jim and Birl
Henderson.
He
left behind his most precious and loving wife, Bernice and children,
Michael
and Sonja Henderson, Genevieve and Ray Whitmore, Joy and Leeland
Ridley, Janice and Doobie White, Tammy and
Jimmy
Chastain, Mitchell and Haley Henderson. He is also survived by fourteen
grandchildren, nine great-grandchildren, one brother, George, and a
host of
nieces, nephews and friends.
He
was loved by all and will be very missed.
This isn’t
good-bye, it’s just see you in a little
while when we
meet in heaven.
