Scott G. Henry, 45, passed away after an extended illness with his family by his side on Tuesday night, May 12, 2015, in the St. Joseph Regional Medical Center, Plymouth.
The son of Charles Richard and Lonna Dee (Denney) Henry, Scott was born and raised all his life in Plymouth. He graduated from Plymouth High School with the class of 1987. He then attained his master of art degree and his bachelor’s in psychology from Ashford University.
In 1990, he enlisted and served our country in the U.S. Army.
Scott was an artist in his heart and soul. He enjoyed writing short stories and poems. He became ordained as a minister and married 4 couples, including his sister and brother-in-law. Scott also had dreams of opening his own church.
He was the kindest person you’d ever meet and had a love for everyone, but his dog, Buddy, had his special heart. Scott had the gentlest soul and was a bright light in his family. You could always go to him for advice about anything.
He is survived by his mother: Lonna, Plymouth; his sister: Lisa J. (Michael) Woods, Rochester; and his brother Chuck (Beth Wilcoxen) Henry, Mitchell. Also surviving are nieces and nephews: Ross Henry; Ciara Woods; Charlene Yarbough; Kayla Mesarosch; and Kevan Wilcoxen; and many aunts, uncles, and dear friends.
Scott was preceded in death by his father: Charles; his maternal grandparents: Joseph and Cora Denney; and paternal grandparents: Kenneth and Mildred Henry.
Visitation will be from 11 a.m. until noon Saturday, May 16, in the Johnson-Danielson Funeral Home, Plymouth. Funeral services will immediately follow at noon at the funeral home. Private family burial will take place in the New Oakhill Cemetery.
