It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Joe Clyde Henry, who departed this life on November 11, 2025. Born to Lennie Otto Henry and Gladys Louise (Kilpatrick) Henry, on March 17, 1947, in Paris, TX. Joe was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother, whose legacy will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.

Joe was an avid hunter, fisher, and master outdoorsman. He enjoyed hunting turkey, deer, and squirrels with his friends and sons. He was gifted in rifle shooting, loved building and tinkering with guns, and won several turkey calling contests. He was a devoted Christian and grew up in the Main Street Presbyterian Church, where he also attended with his family.

Joe had a servant's heart which led him to coach youth sports, work in Child Protective Services, lead Sunday School, and play various roles in Scouts for his children and grandchildren. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge in Honey Grove, Texas. His family will greatly miss his smile, kindness, compassion, nicknames, and hugs.

Joe is survived by his wife, Joan Henry, with whom he shared a loving 56-year marriage, that began on July 17, 1969, in Honey Grove, Texas. He is also survived by his son Daniel Henry, as well as his granddaughters Madison Henry, Sydney Henry, Aubrey Henry, and grandson Caleb Hix.
