Death of wife
Death of wife
My dearest and loving mother, Mavis Evelyn Henderson peacefully passed away on Thursday, 17 December 2020 just 15 days shy of her 97th birthday.
Nine years ago, when the time had come for her to go into aged care, she moved here to Perth to be near me. I was so lucky to have her here for that time and I am going to miss her so much.
Mum remained on her own for 45 years following the death my loving father Bill Henderson on 6 October 1975.
They were married in Shepparton, Victoria 75 years ago today (22/12/1945).
Together again at last. R.I.P
