most of his family, proudly served his country in the occupation of Germany and
during the Korean War 1953-1955 in the 2nd Infantry Regiment; “Second to None”
out of Camp Polk which is now Ft. Polk. Most of Henry’s life was as a hard
working truck driver known as “Dubbl Oh” on the CB radio, coast to coast. He
began trucking early in life and continued until retirement. The phone started
ringing for him to fill in driving, he happily obliged. He started driving
pretty much full time hauling logs, his favorite. He developed many friends over
the years, truck drivers, woods crews, mill workers, ect. After his
granddaughter, Krista, was born, he developed a special care for children,
especially those with special needs. After Alzheimer’s took full effect he had
to be put in special care. Very reluctantly, his wife and family put him in the
Nursing Home. His many friends continued asking about him up to his last day. A
very special thanks to each one! His family would like to offer a very special
than you that words can’t express to the management, staff, nurses and aides of
Sabine Retirement & Rehab and Superior Hospice for the care and concern for him.
We also want to specially mention one of his granddaughters, Krista, and her
extraordinary car for her PawPaw and Nana throughout all this time. She’s a
real-life “Wonder Woman” and means so much to us. We love you and thank you very
much. He became a Christian early in life, being baptized in a Baptist church in
Joplin, Mo. in 1959. As many times happens, he wandered away from God. Through
prayer and visits from Bro. Wesley Jackson, he returned to fellowship with God
at Siloam Baptist Church. He later moved his membership to Oak Hill Baptist
Church with Bro. E.E. Walker as pastor in 1989. Henry started witnessing to many
people from that day forward. He developed a special friendship with Bro. Joey
Williams while he served as pastor at Oak Hill. Henry will be missed, but what
can be better than Heaven. Pallbearers were Kevin Cheatwood, Mike “Cheeto”
Robertson, Danny “Running Bear” Procell, Larry “White Knight” Maxey, Shane
“Stormy” Mitchell, Paul McCormic, Tommy Hill and Jeremy McCormic. Honorary
Pallbearers will be Michael Horn, Josh Horn and Thomas Hill.
