My father, Warren P. Henegar, died August 21, 2012 outside Bloomington, Indiana. Born in 1926 in West Texas, he lived a long and full life and died as he wished - at home in the room he'd shared with his wife for nearly the 50+ years they'd lived in the house on the farm he loved, his wife, daughters, and one of his beloved sons-in-law at his bedside. Here are some of the photos displayed at the "calling" held in the rotunda at the Monroe County Courthouse a week later, August 27.
Here's a link to the Herald Times Obituaries for August 22, 2012 - my father's obituary was a joint effort but mostly the artful and loving endeavor of my sister Jane.

Toddler Warren with his father, Wallace Walker Henegar. The manner in which his father holds his cigar is reminiscent of his son's decades, a lifetime, later.
