James Lonnie MCHENRY

Cherokee Municipal Cemetery


CHEROKEE — The memorial service for James (Jim) McHenry, 64, will be 10 a.m. Monday, July 16, 2012, at the Cherokee Municipal Cemetery Pavilion with Pastor Tom Cooksey officiating. Arrangements are under the direction of the Goodwin Funeral Home of Cherokee. Friends may sign the memory book from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the funeral home.

James (Jim) Lonnie McHenry was born on Oct. 19, 1947, in Sallisaw, Okla., to Lonnie Morgan and Gladys Walters McHenry and entered into heaven on July 11, 2012, at his home in Cherokee.

Jim and Angie Madrid were married Jan. 2, 1965. He was a big family man. He loved to sit on his front porch with family and friends, as he would say, having his “pow wow.” He was a jack of all trades ranging from nursing, carpentry, apartment management in New Mexico and Oklahoma, cross-country truck driving, farming and, most of all, oil field. Hobbies included caring for the elderly, fishing with his sons-in-law, scrap metal, gambling with his daughters, relaxing on the front porch and waving as everyone drove by and spending time with his wife, Angie, his daughters, grandkids and great-grandkids, and loving every minute of it.

Jim was very proud of his Native American heritage and was a member of the Cherokee tribe.

Surviving are his wife, Angie, of the home; his children, Anna Lopez and Donna Irvin of Cherokee, Lindsey McHenry and Anghelina (Nae) McHenry of Oklahoma City and Michael McHenry of the home; his siblings, Larry of Sallisaw, Tommy of Van Buren, Ark., Billy of Sallisaw, Dale of Dewey, Sharon of Van Buren and Wilma of Roswell, N.M.; nine grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his son, Lonnie, and his daughter, Lois Ann, his siblings, Karen, Terry and Betty, and his mother and father.

Memorials may be given to the Michael McHenry education fund, the 11-year-old daughter of Jim and Angie. Goodwin Funeral Home will serve as custodian of the fund.
