Obituary

Euvonda was born on July 5, 1927 in Rush Springs, OK to Roy Melvin and Eunice (Goza) Griffin and died on Monday, August 20, 2018 in Corn, OK, at the age of 91 years, 1 month, and 15 days.

Euvonda married Thomas Harold Henderson on May 26, 1945 in Carnegie, OK and they made their home in Fort Cobb for most of their lives.  She was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, better known as "Mamaw".  A skilled homemaker, Euvonda was very well known for her sewing and cooking.  She willingly prepared many meals at the First Baptist Church where she and her family were members for many years. She was a tireless caregiver and advocate for Harold when his health failed, and was an example of love and perseverance during that very difficult time.

Euvonda is survived by one sister: Loretta Rowell of Oklahoma City, OK; four children: Tom Henderson and wife, Debey of Richardson, TX; Alethea Gibson and husband, David of Oklahoma City, OK; Ron Henderson and wife, Cindy of Weatherford, OK; and Deb Shaleen and husband, Dan of San Antonio, TX.; twelve grandchildren; twenty-one great grandchildren; and three great great grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents, Roy and Eunice Griffin, one infant brother, and her husband, Thomas Harold Henderson.

Mrs. Henderson also leaves behind many other relatives and friends, as well as the compassionate caregivers from the Corn Heritage Village and those from Faith Hospice who cared for her in her final days. Words cannot express our gratitude.
