After WWII she, her parents, and her siblings relocated to Houston from Zanesville, Ohio. Here she met and married “her Bill,” W. E. Henderson, and moved to Austin so he could attend UT Law School. She and Bill then created a life together in Houston. Both Bill and infant son Gerad predeceased her. Their five children: Randy Henderson (wife Debra), Marlene (husband Darryl Shields), Mary Ann (husband Dr. Morris Neel), Elaine (husband Dr. John Eichelberger), and Laura Henderson, 14 grandchildren, and 11 great-grandchildren, will miss their GG, a gracious lady with an unparalleled sense of humor.
The family thanks the staff at St. Dominic Village for the loving, gentle care they gave Mae over the last year. They also thank Eula Marie Wood and Eunice Butler, her caregivers.
