Richard Henderson Obituary
July 12, 1995 - October 30, 2024
Charlotte, North Carolina - It is with great sadness that the family of Richard W Henderson IV note his passing on October 30, 2024. Richard was the son of Richard & Gretchen Henderson and was born on July 12, 1995, in Nashua, New Hampshire. He was raised and attended public schools in Nashua graduating from Nashua High in 2013. With a brain wired for computers and technology, Richard attended Full Sail University in Florida, graduating in 22 months with a BS in Programing in 2016. He carried his passion for the Military and patriotism with him as he entered Marine Boot Camp in 2017 and was employed by Loomis Armored US in Jacksonville, FL and more recently in Charlotte, NC. He resided in Charlotte with his roommate and long time friend, Tyler Bergstrom. Richard loved spending time gaming, especially with friends and spending time at a shooting range with his mom.
Richard was a loving and attentive son, a quick witted brother and loyal to all who were blessed to call him friend and family. Richard will be greatly missed by everyone who had the honor of knowing him.
Family members include his mom & stepdad, Gretchen & Dennis Gallant of Bluffton SC; his sister, Alexa Aboshar of Merrimack NH; and brother, Craig Chemaly, along with nieces, Sara & Soraya Chemaly of Tyngsboro, MA.
