James Henderson Obituary

James Paul Henderson, aged 87, of Lynnwood, WA, passed away peacefully on September 21 after a fall. Paul led a full life marked by dedication to his family and community. He was a man of integrity and often helped those in need.

Learning the machinist trade at a young age, Paul's long professional career was marked by precision and a keen eye for detail.

A man of faith, he was fond of reading the Bible and incorporated its teachings into his daily life. He loved jazz, playing golf, and riding his motorcycle.

Paul is survived by his beloved wife of 64 years, Anne; sister, Susan Carnes; children, Lara Henderson, Britta Luten (Jack), and Kenneth Henderson, along with numerous grandchildren who brought him immense joy. He was preceded in death by his son, Richard Henderson and brother, Bill Henderson.

Paul will be remembered for his many stories, strong principles, and love for his family and friends. Those wishing to honor his memory can engage in acts of kindness and charity in their local communities.
