Brother Eric Henderson, FSC 1942 - 2025

Central Catholic High School is saddened to inform our community about the passing of Brother Eric Henderson, FSC, last evening.

Br. Eric received the habit of the Brothers of the Christian Schools on September 7, 1960. In his nearly 65 years as a Christian Brother, he dedicated the last 14 years of service to Central Catholic. As a teacher, he influenced the lives of countless students with his passion and unwavering dedication to service.

“Br. Eric Henderson, FSC, was a kind, humble, and gentle man. His love for science and teaching was a gift to the Central Catholic community. Br. Eric lived out the charism of the Brothers of the Christian Schools and truly cared for the students entrusted to his care. On behalf of Central Catholic High School, I want to extend our deepest condolences to his family and the Christian Brothers.”

       - Matthew J. Stoessel, ’95, President

“Br. Eric’s work in our school and in the lives of his students does not end with his passing, it continues in the knowledge he imparted, the example he set, and the faith he shared. Let us carry forward his spirit with the same dedication and love for our students that he so clearly embodied.”

       - John “Jack” R. Wallace, Principal

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace. Amen.
