It was a great gift Ronnie and Susan gave our family introducing us to the Hendersons. Pudda will always be in your hearts and will be watching over you til you are together once again. God bless our dear Pudda, Marvin and Quincy and the rest of the family at this difficult time. He blesses the rest of us with the wonderful memories we have.

We were saddened to hear of Pudda passing, we have so many great memories, she always brought laughter and joy to every occasion. What a beautiful soul, we will miss her dearly. God bless you both, may the Lord give you comfort and strength.

Blonde highlights would be wonderful. As a shy sophomore I was spared appearing in class with green hair after consults with cohorts. Only one of many…thank you for the memories, Daurice. Condolences friends and family.

Pudda, in my life, is one of a Kind & Loving one. She celebrated life and everyone felt touched as she freely gave her enthusiasm and joy of life to all or whomever she met. In my future whenever the air or heavens are filled with a special sky scape, lightning/thunder or the Aurora Borealis I will be aware or sense her looking down on us ALL . Thanks to GOD for continuing to touch and guide my life with folks like Pudda 😇. RIP 🙏Till we meet again 🥳

She remained my closest long distance friend throughout the years and will be missed terribly.

First at Lincoln school, where I was one of the recipients of her kind and bubbly help, as an aide. Then as the “den mom” of all of Quinci’s friends. Always providing a safe and fun place to hang out and making the BEST popcorn ever ! A chaperone for high school trips. A laugh, a hug and always kindness.

My deepest condolences, Quinci and family. Sending you all, much love.
