Elizabeth Henderson

Elizabeth Henderson, 88, of Louisville, Kentucky, passed away on Sunday, February 2, 2025. Elizabeth was June & Steve's mama from the beginning until the end of her life. Our mother was extra ordinary and amazing, she believed in God tremendously and the Power Of Prayer. "Hold on to God's unchanging hand". Our mother will live on within both Steve and June, as she takes her final rest. Her Love & Joy came from putting her children first, making sure she gave all of herself to us both! We Miss You Mama!!
