Henrietta Rocelia (Linsey) Henderson, 87, passed away December 18, 2014. She was born December 12, 1927, in Adel, Iowa, the daughter of Henry and Minnie (Weimer) Linsey.
Henrietta was the oldest of four children. She married Cody Noel Henderson on May 21, 1950. He preceded her in death in 1994.

Henrietta enjoyed working in her yard and especially loved her roses, but she most loved to spend time with her family. She had a wonderful life that was filled with special moments with family and the great friends she met over her lifetime.
Henrietta was dedicated to always serving others. She was a wonderful daughter, sister, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. Those that knew her will always remember her wonderful smile.
