Barbara Henderson
Barbara Ruth Henderson passed away at her home on August 27, 2011.
She was born in Chattanooga, TN, on August 6, 1930. Barbara was a sports lover. She watched golf,
tennis and football whenever an event was on TV. She was most particularly an avid University of
Tennessee Football fan, either watching the games on TV or making the trips to Neyland Stadium in Knoxville.

reading novels. She was a dog lover — she always had a dog, and loved her “granddogs” when they visited.
“Nanny” was insistent on having her grandchildren visit every summer.

of Houston, Texas; Her four children, James Clifton Henderson (and wife Janie), Jeffrey Dean Henderson (and wife Lisa),
