Lincoln Henderson, gone but definitely not forgotten! A true Artisan and one heck of a guy.
Lincoln Henderson, 1938 to 2013
Our hearts are breaking with the loss of Lincoln Henderson. He was our Master Distiller. But that was the least of him. He was a loving husband, a proud father, and a devoted grandfather. He was able to recently attend his grandson Kyle’s wedding, for which we are grateful. We often refer to Lincoln as a malcontent. Professionally, that’s true. He was a restless creator. Personally however, you would be hard pressed to find a happier, more gracious man.
We will remember his warmth, his humor, and above all, his kindness. We treasure having had the opportunity to work with him on his last great endeavor. And we will carry on with the lessons he’s taught us. Today, we have truly lost a legend. Now it becomes our duty and honor to ensure his legacy. To his family, loved ones and friends, you have our deepest sympathies. We all share in your grief. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
