It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Henry Louis Saterfield, who left this world peacefully on July 11, 2026, after a courageous battle with illness. Born on August 20, 1958, in Los Angeles, California, Henry's life was a testament to resilience, faith, and a commitment to serving others. Henry was the cherished son of Henry and Marlene Saterfield, who preceded him in death, along with his beloved sisters Alisa and Tonette, and dear nephew and niece, Ronald Copeland and Marlene Windom. Despite these deep losses, Henry lived a life full of love and dedication to his family and community. He is survived by his two children, David and Rebecca Saterfield, who were his pride and joy. He also leaves behind his brothers, Keith and Kevin Saterfield, and sisters, Margaret Oates, Tasha Walls, and Ellen Eberhart. Their memories with Henry are filled with laughter, shared adventures, and the steadfast support he consistently offered.

After his military service, Henry found his calling in working with the Boys and Girls Club of America and serving as a Youth Minister in his hometown community. His ability to connect with young people and inspire them to reach their potential was unparalleled, and his legacy in this field will be long remembered. An outdoorsman at heart, Henry found true joy in fishing, a passion that took him to serene lakes and rivers, where he found peace and reflection.
