Though we will miss her terribly we thank God for giving us such a wonderful and beautiful woman to love and love us. She accepted Christ at a very young age and has been a member of Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church since moving to Bakersfield in the late 50s. Mama Nettie was best known for her kind and generous nature. She never met a stranger. She retired after forty years of service as a care provider. She was preceded in death by her parents, Dave and Judy Gray; three sisters and three brothers, her husband, Samuel Henley and daughter, Pearlie B. Johnson-Hodges. She leaves to cherish her memory two granddaughters, Brenda (Fred) Orange, Jeanette Johnson; six grandsons, William (Alice), Bruce (Joann) Hodges, Marc (Debra) David (Delores) Dereck, James (Beverly) and a host of great-great-grandchildren, cousins and friends.
