Henderson

Reg Peterson | Mar 10, 2021

Henderson a Hamlet or Village
For the last 80 plus years
Has now got it’s Death Sentence
From our voted in Peers

It is where I went to School
And made some new friends
Some have moved away
And some have decided to stay

Things have changed over time
There was a Church School and Store
There you could get Gas Groceries and More
You could put all on an account
Because money was scarce and you was a friend
Just remember when the money comes in
To stop by and pay your friend

The Store is gone, the gas pumps too
The School is a Hall for all to use
The Church is still going after 100 years
It is there for your Hope Laughter and Tears

My Memories are many not just a few
I am one of many that feels this way
For the sake of our Heritage
That Henderson must stay

Next door we have lakes
Resorts are there too
We have places to see
And things to do

It is open to ALL
So come as you are
If you live next door
Or come from afar
