Glen Earl Henderson
Cottonwood, Arizona
February 14, 1938 – July 16, 2021
Glen Earl Henderson of Cottonwood, Arizona died on July 16th, 2021 from complications of pneumonia, Multiple Sclerosis, and a heart fully and unapologetically attached to his family and beloved, sun-basked Arizona. He was 83 years old. Glen was born on February 14, 1938 in Phoenix, AZ to Gladys Hortence ‶Nana″ (McKelvy) and Ralph Henderson. His childhood was spent in the Phoenix area, well before it boomed, so he always appreciated its cotton fields, ocotillo and Gila monsters. Glen graduated from Tolleson High School in 1955. He began college at the University of Arizona and transferred to Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado where he earned a B.S. in Forestry Management in 1960. On April 21, 1962, he married Carolyn Mae McPherson in Denver, CO. In their 59 years of marriage, they raised two daughters and a son, and designed and built a home and a mountain cabin together.
