Thelma Henderson

Thelma Epley Henderson, 86, of Moore, SC, completed her work here on earth on June 28, 2019. She was the daughter of the late Charlie and Gladys Parris Epley. She was married for 58 years to her great love, the late Sam Dorman Henderson. She was an active member of Poplar Springs Baptist Church. She leaves behind a legacy of love and service to her Heavenly Father, her family, and her friends. Thelma enjoyed gardening, making beautiful quilts that now will be family heirlooms, playing with her grandchildren, and making irresistible desserts. Thelma is survived by her children: Lisa Henderson Bryant (Larry) of Irmo, SC; Tony Henderson (Wendy) of Hendersonville, NC; Micki Henderson Hart (Larry) of Moore, SC; and Craig Henderson (Kim) of Woodruff, SC.
