Henderson, D. Clem
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of Clem Henderson at the Kingston General Hospital on Sunday, August 5, 2018 after a severe stroke. Clem was in his 85th year. Beloved husband and best friend of the late Beverly Henderson (nee Arnold). Loving father of Cheryl Henderson, David (Darlene) Henderson , Tom (Debbie) Henderson and Shelley Ferguson. He was the proud grandfather to Ryan Henderson, Brittany and Brooke Henderson, Cy (Amy) and Casandra (Riley) Ferguson and proud great-grandpa to Quinn, Blakely and Callie. Dear brother-in-law of Bob (Bev Bennett) Arnold, Mary Lee (Kieth) Drummond and Bill (Jeanette) Arnold. He was the son of the late Mary and Ken Henderson of Carleton Place, predeceased by sister Diana Fox (Morley) and his sister-in-law Brenda Arnold (Barry Begley). Fondly remembered by his many nieces, nephews, cousins extended family and many good friends. Clem alongside his beloved Beverly owned the Hobby Shop & Variety Centre for over 40 years. He was a quiet and kind gentleman holding the highest integrity in business and in family life. He loved going to the racetrack in the early years and really enjoyed it with the modern facility combined with a good meal and the slots at the casino. He liked watching a good hockey game, catching Lawrence Welk on Saturday nights and loved following Brittany and Brooke’s journey on the LPGA. Clem was above all passionate and proud of all of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
