This lovely obituary was submitted by Bonnie Beauchamp, daughter of Mildred Bearden. She had this to say about her grandmother Effie Henry:
“My grandparents moved to Phoenix when I was 3 or 4 and I was very lucky to have them out here. Grandpa Henry died when I was 7 but Gram lived until I was 31. Gram was a saver, I think it was genetic among the Henry women.”
I’m so glad you’re on board, Bonnie. I’ve been very curious about your grandmother and great-grandmother. Thank you for helping to bring them alive!
