I have no doubt the next generation will continue with his great work. I wish to extend my deepest sympathy to his wife Heather and his family.”

Mr Henderson’s funeral service was held in St Andrew’s Parish Church, Killyman on Tuesday followed by interment in the adjoining Churchyard.

He survived by his wife Heather, children Karan, Kerry and James, grandchildren and a wide family circle.
