Henry Stephen Rowell, Sr.

Henry Stephen Rowell, Sr., born November 19, 1943, peacefully passed away on November 10, 2026. He was a devoted husband, loving father, cherished grandfather, beloved brother, and faithful Christian whose life was marked by love, dedication, and unwavering faith in the Lord.

Henry lived his life putting God, his wife, and his family before himself, serving as an example of Christian love, humility, and devotion to those who knew him. His faith was not simply something he professed, but something he lived daily through his love, kindness, and dedication to others.

He dedicated 23 years of his career as an equipment operator with Scott Paper Company and Kimberly-Clark. He was a hardworking man who took pride in providing for his family and faithfully fulfilling his responsibilities.

His greatest joy, however, was found in his faith and family. Henry loved the Lord deeply and lived each day striving to reflect Christ in his words and actions. He especially enjoyed leading the singing at church and sharing his love for worship and fellowship with others. He also found peace and happiness in the serenity of the outdoors, spending time hunting and fishing, and caring for his beloved cats. These simple pleasures brought him great joy and reflected his appreciation for God's creation.

Henry will be remembered for his loving heart, quiet strength, faithful spirit, and selfless devotion to his family. His life was a beautiful testimony of faith, and the love he shared will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew him.

He is survived by his loving wife, Annie Rowell; his son, Steve Rowell, and daughter-in-law, Kristy Rowell, of Butler; his daughter, Stephanie Walters, and son-in-law, Robby Walters, of Prattville; his cherished grandchildren, Victoria Rowell, Gunter Myers, Hensley Rowell, and Kennedy Rowell; his sister, Cindy Reeves, of Milton, Florida; and numerous nieces and nephews who loved him dearly.

He was preceded in death by his father, Clinton Garfield Rowell; his mother, Annie Mazie Rowell; and his brother, Woodrow Rowell.

As Henry enters his eternal home, we find comfort in the promises of God's Word and the assurance that his faith has become sight. His legacy of love, faithfulness, and devotion will forever remain in the hearts of his family and friends.

Comfort is found in the promise of Psalm 23, reminding us that the Lord is our Shepherd, guiding us through every valley and welcoming us into His eternal home.

Graveside Services will be held on Saturday, November 14, 2026, beginning at 11:00 a.m. at Greenwood Cemetery with Minister Stacey Harrell officiating and Dunklin Funeral Home directing.

Pallbearers are: Mack Ross Joe Rowell Chad Rowell Kevin Rowell Christopher Reeves Aaron Reeves
