H.C. Henderson Jr. and the love of his life, the late Alice Faye Henderson, are the 2011 Citizens of the Year chosen by the Greater Chiefland Area Chamber of Commerce.
"This is such a special moment in my life," Henderson said in accepting the award. He thanked the Chamber for including his late wife, who died about seven months ago.
It's Henderson's second honor. In January he was named 2012 Alumni of the Year for the Levy County Schools Foundation, a group that provides scholarships to high school graduates and teaching grants that he helped to start in 1989.
The 73-year-old founder of Levy County Abstract & Title Co. was tricked into attending the Chamber's annual banquet by his son Skipper. The younger Henderson told his father he needed to attend to support a friend who was named the winner.
The friend, Luther Beauchamp, was the night's guest speaker telling the 125 business members that they should find humor in their jobs and would find that it increased their bottom line.
