Dave Henderson

Making this stranger’s day

Larry Stone’s story on Dave Henderson’s untimely death (“Our Favorite Smile,” Tuesday) reminded me of a beautiful day last summer at Kayak Park Golf Course.

I arrived early to get out before the charity celebrity tournament was about to start, and about 75 very happy golfers had assembled near the clubhouse

As I drove the golf cart to the parking lot to retrieve my golf clubs I caught the eye of Dave Henderson. We didn’t know one another, had never met, but he gave me a smile as if I were his long, lost brother.
