Kenny Henderson

James Kenneth "Kenny" Henderson, age 76 of Dandridge, passed away on Wednesday, July 2, 2025.

Kenny was a veteran of the United States Army, having served during the Vietnam War era. A plumber and contractor by trade, he will be most remembered for his character. Those who knew him best described him as caring, kind, generous, funny, and maybe a bit ornery at times. Kenny loved the Lord and his church family. He was a member of Hearts Way Baptist Church of Knoxville. He also loved life; and truly lived it to the fullest. His passions included restoring old cars, hunting, fishing, and watching westerns.

He was preceded in death by his loving wife, Debra Henderson; parents, James Henderson & Evelyn Jenkins; and brothers, Sam, Tom, & Larry Henderson. He is survived by his daughter, Kelly (Steve) Johnson; grandchildren, Matthew & Will Johnson; and special friends, Johnny Spence, Brad Henry, Larry & Donna Malnati, Clark; Laura, Rye, & Elsie Chambers, Tommy Tindel, Mark & Terri Jackson, Dot Wadsworth, and Pastor Mike & Cathy Torrence.

On Saturday, July 5, 2025, Pastor Mike Torrence will officiate a 10:30AM graveside service with military honors at Hillcrest Cemetery in Dandridge. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations to Hearts Way Baptist; 2810 Middlebrook Pike - Knoxville, TN 37921

The family has requested that everyone who attends the graveside to wear casual dress.

Farrar Funeral Home of Dandridge is honored to serve the Henderson family.
