Obituary Jeanie K. Henline "Katy"

Posted

Jeanie K. Henline, age 65, of Gatesville, passed away on

January 15, 2023. Katy was born on May 7, 1957, to Annie Jeanette Fears and Bobby Gene Fears.

Katy became a charge nurse in the early 80s at the Rotunda

Nursing Home where she did what she loved — taking care of

those in need. When she took care of those close to her, she

gave you three options: Nurse Nice, Nurse Nasty, and Nurse

Gestapo. You never knew what she was going to say or do,

she was like her favorite character, Spongebob Squarepants.

She would have you laughing one moment and crying the

next!

Katy found Christ at an early age; and after she had her three

beautiful girls, she found the love of her life, Robert Henline.

On July 23rd, 1993, Pastor Sonny Garman pronounced them

husband and wife.

Katy attended Grace Assembly Church, with Pastor Wray

Nunn and Thelma Nunn, for most of her life. They taught her

and Robert how to become ministers of the Gospel of Jesus

Christ. This is where she began playing her yellow electric

guitar and assisting with fellowship. She ministered her love

of her Father, Jesus Christ, and sowed the seeds that led

people to Jesus Christ.

Katy, to all who knew her, was a kind, loving, and giving

person. She never met a stranger and she always brightened

a room. Many considered her to be a mother figure, as she

opened her arms to anyone she met. Like a mother figure she

didn't refrain from "setting you straight", as she did not stand

for any "nonsense."

She was a 5-foot, 100-pound spit fire!

She is loved by many! Her love for God and her family will

always be remembered by those who knew her.

Jeanie K. Henline is survived by her doting husband,

Robert Henline and her children; Annie Aviles and

her husband, Erasmo Aviles, Melinda Greene, and

Dana Millsap. Her grandchildren Whitney Escobar

and her husband, Gerardo Escobar, Travis Potter and

his wife, Zoe Potter, Matthew Aviles, Carson Aviles,

and Christian Aviles. Her siblings Gaylen Henson,

Tammy Strickland, Jason Lee, and Bobby Fears Jr.

and his wife, Sandy Fears. As well as her Aunt Neter

Lum and her many nieces and nephews and special

friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents and beloved

sister Cindy Gordon.
