Obituary of Bryan K. Henderson

Age 53, of Plainfield, IL passed peacefully from this life, surrounded by loved ones, on Friday evening, April 14, 2023 from injuries sustained in an automobile accident.

Bryan was born September 20, 1969 in LaGrange to Carolyn (Kammerad) and the late Keith Henderson.  He was raised in Sugar Grove and graduated with the class of 1987 from Kaneland High School.  He continued his education at Devry Institute of Technology where he received a bachelors degree while also working for Mitsubishi Electric of Vernon Hills for the past 35 years. 

He is the beloved husband of 29 years to Jody (Pleshar) Henderson; loving father of Jenna, Danielle and Brooke; dearest son of Carolyn; fond brother of Cheryl (Rodney) Dunham and caring uncle to many nieces and nephews whom he loved dearly.  He will also be missed by his canine companion, Brody, several cousins and many cherished friends.

Preceded in death by his father, Keith Henderson.

Bryan loved the outdoors and thoroughly enjoyed camping with his family and friends over the years.  Nothing was more satisfying to him than holding court in front of a roaring campfire surrounded by those he loved.  Bryan found joy in NASCAR, old westerns, country music, and putting together remote control cars. 

A Memorial Visitation for Bryan will be held Saturday, May 13, 2023 from 12 Noon until 3 p.m. at the Fred C. Dames Funeral Home 3200 Black Rd. (at Essington Rd.) Joliet.  A service of remembrance will begin at 3 p.m.  As it was Bryan’s wish cremation rites have been accorded.
