Joan Henderson Vollmering, 85, went to her heavenly home early Sunday morning, August 8, 2021, with her family by her side. She was born March 18, 1936, in El Dorado, Arkansas to Vincent Paul & Evie Mae Henderson.
Loving mother of six, Joan is survived by children: Vanessa Scheumack (John), Shawn Vollmering (Bonnie), Chris Vollmering, Travis Vollmering, Jr., Laura Stehling (Nelson). She is preceded in death by her parents, husband Travis Vollmering, daughter Tammi Best and granddaughter Paige Scheumack Romero (Allen). Joan is survived by her sister Laura Klingaman, brothers Vince Henderson (Sandy) and Dick Henderson (Gilda).
An incredible matriarch, Joan always demonstrated unconditional love and forgiveness. She loved her family and spending time with her 25 precious grandchildren and 21 great grandchildren brought her great joy. Joan made each one feel that they were most important.
Joan was a longtime member of the Inez Baptist Church. She loved flowers, working in her garden and all creatures large and small, finding beauty in everything around her. Kind to all, with a wonderful sense of humor, Joan will be greatly missed. We find comfort in knowing that we will one day be reunited.
Visitation will be held Wednesday, August 11, 2021, from 5 to 7 pm at Rosewood Funeral Chapel with Graveside Services at 10 am Thursday, August 12, 2021, at Memory Gardens Cemetery.
Meme will be carried to her final resting place by her Grandsons; Jude Stehling, Jason Brannan, Tyler LaFour, Vincent Vollmering, Scott Vollmering, Colton Vollmering, Reed Vollmering, Mason Vollmering, Dolan Vollmering, and Heston Vollmering.
In lieu of flowers, contributions in Joan's memory may be made to Hospice of South Texas, 605 E. Locust, Victoria, TX 77901.
Death is not extinguishing the light; it is only putting out the lamp because dawn has come.
