Hoy Henderson was a true gentleman. Our department had the priviledge of knowing Hoy for over 20 years when he came to Reno to play Keno. He will be greatly missed. Our thoughts are with the Henderson family.

I met Mr. Henderson in 1969 while I was working in the identification bureau of the San Francisco Police department and he was working in the record room on the other side of the office. Hoy was always a soft spoken gentleman of great wisdom. Hoy was truly one of the finest people I ever met during my career the police department. I extend my deepest sympathies to the Henderson family in their time of sorrow.
