Joe Henderson worked at the Tampa Tribune, mostly in the sports department, for nearly 42 years. He covered local baseball for much of that time, including the inaugural season of the then-Tampa Bay Devil Rays. He watched players like Wade Boggs, Dwight Gooden, Fred McGriff, and many others advance from high school to the major leagues. These days, he enjoys semi-retirement and spending time with his wife of 40 years, Elaine, and his fantastic new grandson Landon.
