Norman Charles Henderson

Norman Charles Henderson of Neepawa, MB passed away March 12, 2024 at the Neepawa Health Centre at the age of 68 years.

Norman was born October 17, 1955 in Neepawa to Charlie and Lena Henderson (nee Turner), the youngest of four children. He grew up on the family farm in the Glendale District where he attended school until 1971 when the family moved into Neepawa. Norman continued his education at Neepawa Area Collegiate and worked after school at Kerr’s Men’s Store. After graduation in 1974 he moved to Winnipeg to work for International Harvester, later transferring to Saskatoon. In 1978 Norman moved back to Neepawa to work for Green Acres Equipment (John Deere) in the parts department.

Norman married Norma Love from Plumas on July 7, 1984. They had two children, son Brady and daughter Lauren. Over the years many hours were spent with his family at the local rink watching his children learn how to skate and watching Brady play hockey. Later on in life he enjoyed getting to re-live those memories watching his Grandson’s.

After working at John Deere for 37 years, Norman retired November 1, 2015 to look after his young Grandson’s. In his spare time he enjoyed working in the yard and sitting on the patio having a coffee and reading. Family was very important to Norman and he was always helping out where needed or planning the next family gathering.

He was predeceased by his Father Charlie, Mother Lena, Sister Arlene Guilbert, Brother Edward and Great Nephew Spencer Guilbert.

Surviving are his wife Norma, son Brady, daughter Lauren, Grandson’s Blake, Tatum and Colt Bennett, sister Mavis (John) Cowpersmith and many cousins, nieces and nephews.

Funeral service for Norman will be held on Saturday, May 25, 2024 at the Neepawa Anglican United Church at 1:00pm.
