Sheryll Kaye Henson, 74, of Sunman, passed away Monday, January 3, 2022, at Margaret Mary Health. She was born December 8, 1947, in Whitesburg, KY to Denver and Avanell (Polly) Maggard. Sheryll graduated from Whitesburg High School. On July 6, 1991, she married Jeffrey L. Henson in Dover, IN. On July 6, 2010, after 22 years of employment, Sheryll retired from Hillenbrand Industry.
Sheryll enjoyed spending time with her family and friends. You could always find her in the evening sitting on her porch relaxing, just waiting for a friend or family member to stop by. Sheryll had a special place at Lake Cumberland where she always enjoyed spending time with her husband and family. She never missed a chance to go out on the lake fishing or just relaxing. Along with being a wife, Sheryll’s pride and joy was being a mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She would be your biggest critic, but at the same time encourage you, support you, love you, and be your greatest fan.

Henson; father, Denver Maggard of Hazard, KY; mother, Avanell Polly of Naples, FL; son, Tony Spaulding of Sunman; daughters: Tammy Horton of Sunman and De-Nell Dyer of Hamilton, OH; five grandsons: Anthony Spaulding of Osgood, Justin Horton of Sunman, Austin Horton of Sunman, Ryan Jenkins of Hamilton, OH, and Chad Gress of Sunman; granddaughter: Misty Spaulding of Baltimore, MD; five great-grandchildren: Denver, Oaklynn, Laikyn, Mackenzie, and Mackyla; mother-in-law, Shirley A.
