For the family of Floyd Henson, Jr.
Debra, Crystal, and Amber

Karl and I are so sorry for your loss. As new campers 9 years ago at New Point Campground, he was always there to help, teach and show us the 'ropes' of camping, boating and fishing. He was a kind and generous man. He spoke so fondly of his daughter and granddaughters, and always looked forward to their summertime visits at the campground.
We will miss him dearly.

To the family of Floyd

We at New Point Campground will surely miss Floyd. He was one of the dearest men I have ever met. I could always count on at least two hugs and kisses each camping season. I work in the store and office at New Point and always got my kiss and hug at the beginning of the season and the end of the season. I have never heard a cross word about Floyd and I will surely miss him.

Regards,
Barbara and Joe Clark
