The Wellington Leader July 20, 1978

Edd (Rusty) Henard, 56, died in Collingsworth General Hospital at 2:30 a.m. Wednesday,, July 19, of an apparent heart attack. Mr. Henard was striken at the family home 7 miles north of Wellington and arrived at the hospital a short time before he died. He was the third generation of one of the early ranching families to settle in the area-a family that has engaged in and influenced the ranching and
livestock business throughout the county's history.

Samuel Edward Henard was born in Collingsworth County, the son of the late John Henard and Emma White Henard. He grew up near Wellington and graduated from high school here.

Thirty years ago, Henard and his brother, John Robert Henard, bought the Wellington Livestock Commission. Edd Henard and his sons bought the interest in the businsss from his brother in 1976, and only this year completed enlargement that tripled the company's capacity. It is one of the few livestock commissions in this area owned and operated by a single family. Mr. Henard was a Methodist.

Survivors are his wife, the former Willie Faye Talbot, one daughter, Mrs. Dudley (Gail) Coleman of Dozier, two sons: Joe Henard and Billy Henard; one brother, John R. Henard Jr., and four grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, his sister, Mrs. Ed Taylor, and a brother, Dan Henard.
