Who's he? Yesterday @ 2:37 he and his wife became the first folks to cross the Mighty MO via the Bond Bridge according to the KC Star.  The Star notes " it should be completely open by the end of the year".  Meanwhile, the Barry  Road Culvert project continues,...on and on.  I understand the ribbon cutting ceremony is already taking shape,... sometime in 2012.

Mike Henderson

Mary Hoy sent an email yesterday morning indicating Mike Henderson had passed away.  Mike had been battling numerous health issues in recent years.

I don't know if he was a Weatherby Lake "icon" but he was surely a Weatherby Lake "character".  He co-founded the WL Irish-American Club which hosted the annual St Patty's Day bash at the CC.  The benefactor of the proceeds was the WL Police Department, quite a few items over the years were purchased for the PD.

He used his "I Like Mike" theme as his campaign slogan for WL mayor.  He won by a narrow margin and had his share of ups and downs during his one term.  We had our fair share of disagreements but did manage to come to middle ground on occasion.

According to Mary's email, services will  be held at Pine Ridge Presbyterian this Friday at 5 PM followed by an Open House at the CC.    
 

No Comment

For whatever reason Comments has picked up the past couple of weeks...don't think it's the topics necessarily.  Thanks for playing, I like reading Comments, as goofy as some are.  Paul Gross is gone, he was always good for mega-comments and views as well.  Your assignment is to forward this blog address to one other WeatherbyLakean, the more the merrier?  BTW who is this?
