Joyce Henry Obituary
Joyce D. Henry, 83, of Helena, passed away June 11, 2024. She was born in Fremont, Ohio, on September 24, 1940, to Don and Mary (Nebergall) Miller. Joyce was a 1958 graduate of Fremont Ross High School. On August 20, 1972, she married Charles M. Henry, and he preceded her in death on January 11, 2002.
Joyce was a pillar of light and strength for her family and friends. She raised eight children and over the years was a nanny for her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Joyce was known for having the biggest heart. She loved being with her family and over the years she created with them many fond memories and left them with a number of positive life lessons. If you asked them to describe her, they would say she was the most loving, patient, caring, considerate, genuine, optimistic and graceful woman they ever knew, and they loved her to the moon and back. Joyce also had a strong faith and was devoted to her church. She attended services regularly until she no longer could due to her illness.
Left to cherish her memory are her children, Bonnie (Gene) Cupples, Rick Henry, Helen Henry (Glen), Robin (Ralph) Davidson, Susan (Dave) Clark, Tim Henry, James Henry; grandchildren, Belinda, Amber, Alicia, Dusty, Richard (Mary), Jake, Jeremy, Rex, Austin, Timmy H., Timmy G., Jared, Lindsay, Samantha, Drew, Ashley, Kaylee; many great-grandchildren; sister, Shirley Shoemaker; son-in-law, Jim Halm.
In addition to her parents and husband, Charles, she was preceded in death by her daughter, Brenda Halm; siblings, Betty, Elsie, Imogene, Joann, Kenny, and Richard.
Visitation will be held Friday, June 21, 2024, from 10:00 AM until 12:00 PM at Herman-Veh Funeral Home & Crematory, 319 W. Madison Street, Gibsonburg, OH, 43431. Funeral services will begin at the funeral home at 12:00 PM. Pastor Mike Jenkins will officiate. Burial will follow at Lindsey Cemetery.
