William Joseph "Bill" Henry
passed at his home the evening of September 3rd after fighting a long brave battle with pancreatic cancer. His family and friends were all by his side. He is survived by his sister, JoAnn Iles; two daughters, Amy Henry Kendall (Gregg) and Anne Henry Ward (Rick); and three grandchildren, Gabe Kendall, and Abby and Ryan Ward.
Bill graduated from Shortridge High School where he was one of their star basketball players. He was a local contractor who was working up until a week before he passed. He will be missed by so many, especially those friends from the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, where he was a constant fixture during the month of May. His love of cars, especially Cadillacs, and car racing began at an early age. Bill attended over 60 Indy 500 races.
