Beverly K. Henson, age 75, of Jackson, Ohio, passed away peacefully on October 29, 2025, surrounded by her loving family. A devoted mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, and friend, Beverly lived a life defined by compassion, faith, and generosity.
Born on February 26, 1950, Beverly was a woman of deep conviction and boundless love. She followed Jesus with courage and humility, always seeking His guidance in every step she took. Her faith was not just spoken—it was lived. She was known for her remarkable kindness, she would often pick up hitchhikers, gift others with thoughtful surprises, and making sure no one ever went hungry. Her heart of gold touched countless lives, and her home was a sanctuary of warmth and welcome. Her legacy is one of love, faith, and selflessness. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered by all who were blessed to know her.
Beverly is survived by her three daughters: Rhonda (Lynn)Henson-Ramey, Christiane (Pete)Henson-Barr, and Charity Henson; her grandsons, Dakota (Jasmine) Duhl and Dalton Henson; and her great-grandchildren: Aurora and Rowan Duhl. She also leaves behind her younger sister, Regina Erwin; her nephew, Aaron (Rebecca) Howell; her niece, Amber McFarland; and many beloved great-nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her loving parents, Harlan and Lena Erwin, and her older sister, Rita Howell.
The family would like to thank the Adena Hospice Team and the Adena Chillicothe ICU department. They were all amazing, kind, caring, and went above and beyond over the past two weeks. We appreciate you!
In lieu of flowers, the family encourages acts of kindness in Beverly’s memory—feed someone, help a stranger, or simply share love the way she always did. If you would like to make a monetary donation, we would ask that you send it to the Amazing Team at Adena Hospice.
Beverly requested not having a formal service and to just remember her as she was.
