October 7, 1969 - September 9, 2025

Russell Dean Henderson, 55, of Conway, Arkansas, passed away on Tuesday, Sept. 9, 2025, surrounded by his family. He was a fiercely loving and supportive husband and father. He was born on Oct. 7, 1969, in Clarksville, Texas, and was preceded in death by his parents, Glenn L. Henderson Sr. and Vera Henderson Walker.

Russell married Shelley (Mace) Henderson on Nov. 11, 2000, in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. He graduated from Central Baptist College with a degree in business management and was a parts manager at Caldwell Toyota. Russell was known for his selflessness, warmth and his welcoming nature. He had a positive outlook and a great sense of humor, even through difficult times. Russell never met a stranger and always took an opportunity to lend a helping hand. In his spare time, he loved working on cars, was an avid automobile enthusiast, and especially loved vintage cars. He enjoyed live music events with his wife and traveling with his family. Russell was a light in the lives of all who had the privilege of knowing him and will be deeply missed.

Russell is survived by his loving wife of 24 years, Shelley; children, Chandler (Howard), Hayden, Miranda (Amy), Mitchell (Madisen) and Ricky (Gabrielle); brother, Glenn Jr. (Robin); and sister, Amy (George); and six grandchildren.

In keeping with Russell's generous spirit, he gave the gift of life through organ donation. To honor his wishes, no services will be held.
