The company rejoices and celebrates the life of Terry Henderson. Henderson was a deeply religious man who truly walked in faith. His influence in the industry has been felt worldwide. With over 60 years of service and dedication at Henderson Engineering, he worked his way through the factory into engineering and was the chief designer of multiple compressed air dryer designs. The most famous being the energy-efficient heat-of-compression design originally patented by Joe and Terry Henderson in the 1970s.

As President of Henderson Engineering for over 40 years, Henderson was instrumental in the success and expansion of the company. His loss is felt deeply by family, friends and colleagues. His legacy of compassion will be remembered forever.

Chuck Henderson has assumed the position of President and CEO, and prays the guiding principles of honesty and integrity that have been the foundation of the business will continue for generations to come.
