Donald Craig Henry, 61, of Hazelwood, Missouri, passed away on Tuesday, May 6, 2025, at Christian Northeast Hospital, St Louis, Missouri. He was the son of the late Donald Clifton Henry and Barbara Jean Anderson. 

Donald was outgoing, corny, adventurous, and loyal to those he loved. He loved having a good time with family and friends, and never missed the chances to tell one of his many life stories, or hilarious jokes. Anything to get a laugh and a smile out of you.

His favorite things he loved to do were spend time with family/friends, go to St. Louis Cardinals baseball games, work on stuff, and gamble.

He will be sadly missed and long remembered as a loving father, brother, grandfather, partner in crime, and friend. In the afterlife, he will be joining his father, Donald Clifton Henry, his mother Barbara Jean Anderson, and his best friend Christopher Todd Watson.

Surviving are his siblings: Trudy Cannon, Jane Black, Billy Anderson, Donellen Henry; his child: Mark Henry; his 2 grandchildren: Mason and Caroline Henry; life partner Erica Sparks; and many other relatives and friends.
