Beloved father and husband, Henry A. Boyd Sr., was born March 21, 1937, in Meridian, Mississippi. He passed away March 24, 2017 at Trego Manor in WaKeeney. He had just turned 80 years old.
Henry served eight years in the US Air Force. He was a proud veteran. He spent most of his life in the Houston, Texas area, where he managed large automobile dealerships and dabbled in country music. Most who saw him perform say he was a ringer for Conway Twitty. Henry was new to WaKeeney having moved from Colorado in 2016.
He passed peacefully in the night at Trego Manor Nursing facility in WaKeeney. The family would like to commend the Manor for their wonderful and compassionate care.
Henry is survived by his wife, Madline; daughter, Natalie; and three sons, Alan, Alton, and Danny.
