Mark “Mitch” Henderson’s family

Update: April asked me to share that our messages of remembrances and happy memories and our generous support of this effort is deeply appreciated at this time of unimaginable loss. Please click here for Mark's/Mitch's obituary; it is a beautiful tribute reflecting the many ways he touched our lives. The memorial service will take place on June 15 in Easton.

Mark “Mitch” Henderson, age 49, passed away suddenly on March 30. He was preparing for a family Easter egg hunt when he suffered a fatal pulmonary embolism. Mark was above all else, devoted to his family. The only thing he loved more than the New England Patriots and spicy hot chili was being a dad to Wyatt & Ambrose. Favorite memories include time playing together at the local playground and reading books to his sons every night before bed. Mark is also remembered and missed by a circle of long time close friends, most of whom he met during his employment at Emerson Swan, Reebok, and Shaw’s. As his young family tries to cope with his loss, help is needed with final expenses and meeting the immediate needs of the 23 month old and 5 year old sons he leaves behind. A memorial gathering will take place this summer.
