Death date: Mar 10, 2024
In loving memory of our beloved son, who departed from this world far too soon. Chaize O’Donald Henderson was born to Tiffany Lewis and Donald Henderson. I rushed him into this world on August 24, 2004 and I feel like he rushed ou Read Obituary
He was a really loving person, amazing at everything he tried and always did his best to make me-and many others- smile everyday. He will truly be missed.
Chaize (Prince to almost all) was truly special. I was honored beyond belief to be called White Dad. (inside joke that become just Dad shortly) The story about how ran to get to my wife is quite fitting as he ran straight into our hearts. He was in our home more times I than I could ever count. He would make his rounds hugging me, my wife, check Emma’s room to see if she was over, lastly to Ej. The moment he learnt that I had a few bbq championships under my belt thanks to a great team I was on. He immediately latched and wanted to compete. His sauces were amazing and I wanted him to join the team, that spot will never be filled for it his and I will bring home those titles in his name. I can’t thank him enough for being a hero, I can’t begin to express my love for the man he was, though my heart its broken I find peace in knowing he is racing around testing out the speed of his wings, and in Gods kitchen making meals for the ages, and thrilled that it’s always football season in heaven.
All I can really say is that Chaize was a huge part of our family and lives. He was such a blessing to us and every moment spent with him was filled with so much joy, laughter and love. He is and will always be my hero for his ultimate sacrifice to save my son, his best friend, his brother! I am honored to have been called his “white mama” and my husband his “white daddy”! There was never a time that we seen him that we didn’t wrap him in a hug and tell him how much we love him! Gone but never forgotten and always loved and missed! Fly high Prince!! ~ Forever 19 ~
praying for the family. I went to school with chaize. He was such a great friend and former classmate. I will miss you forever chaize. Rest in peace buddy.
Donald and all of your family we send our sincere prayers and condolences and our love to all of you during your time of bereavement.
Love,
Betty Jean (Smith) Gilchrist & Family
