BLESSED AT 104: Mrs. Daisy Henderson recently joined family and friends to celebrate more than a century of life when she trained 104. A native of Columbus, MS, Mrs. Henderson has spent most of her life in Cincinnati and worked in housekeeping at several major hotels until her retirement. She was married to the late Sam Henderson and the couple had two children, son Eddie (deceased) and daughter Daisy Mae.

Mrs. Henderson also has been blessed with two granddaughters and three great-grandchildren. She currently resides at the Oak Pavilion Nursing Home in Cincinnati and credits her longevity to "obeying her parents."
