John was a lover of life. Everyday he was looking for new things to see. Creations of God's hand more wondrous then he had ever seen before. He loved to go to the river and fish with his son, whether they caught anything or not. He loved to play music by himself and with some of the best friends a man could have. He loved to be out in nature, whether it was by the river or in the wood. He was solitary man at times, but he loved every second he got with his friends and family.
John is survived by his son, Matt (Sara) Henderson of Ames, his mother, Betty Henderson of Story City, his brother Larry (Sharon) Henderson of Slayton, MN, nieces and nephew, Amy Henderson, Andy Henderson , Annie Henderson and her special friend Matthew Bartholomew and their son Brenner and his many friends.
