Bugs Henderson 1943-2012

On Friday March 9, 2012, we learned that our friend, Texas blues and rock guitar great Bugs Henderson had lost his battle with cancer the night before.
Words cannot express our feelings at this time. Bugs was one of the “good guys”
in the craziest of business’s. He did it “his way” and in the forty years that I’ve been aware of him, I’ve never heard anyone who had a bad word to say about him.
We will all miss him.
I find it hard to believe that I won’t pick up the phone again and hear
that always recognizable voice saying “Hey Mercer, it’s Bugs”. Or that
that I won’t be dialing his number again, looking forward to saying “Hey Bugs, it’s Mercer”.
We’re sending all of our love and good thoughts to Patty and his family in their
time of grief.
Hey Bugs, we love you.
