Michael Edwin Henderson

Michael retired from Thaker Aluminum (Vulcan Materials Co.) in 2011 after 40 years of employment. He was a very loving husband and a devoted father. He enjoyed traveling, was a competitive chess player, an avid sports fan, a grill master, and a collector of hats. He was very wise and loved to give advice, whether you wanted it or not!

Michael is survived by the love of his life, his wife of 32 years, Carolyn (Jones) Henderson; two sons, Loren Mirese (Daisy) and Phillip Michael, both of Sandusky; sister, Tamara Gina (Dana) Taylor, of Toledo; brothers, Roy Allen (Katherine) Gant and Pastor Darrell Roland (Lisa) Gant, both of Sandusky; special aunt, Mildred Gant, of Sandusky; and a host of nieces, nephews, and other relatives.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Roy B. and Anna Lou (Larry) Gant; father, Lee (Roberta) Henderson; sister, Joyce Ann Henderson; grandparents, Orange (Annie) Larry; and several aunts and uncles.
