Rt was
somewhat an icon in his hometown of Ellijay, Georgia.
Not a day goes by that someone has an
interesting tidbit to share about the man
that rode a bicycle…decorated as if he were on his way to ride in a parade.
Why just yesterday I was speaking with a gentleman at the local TV station and he
knew RT as the “shellac” man. He didn’t really know his name but for years he saw
this guy around town that polished his shoes and everything on his bicycle with
shellac.
Quoted by Camille (Candy) Day of
Ellijay, “RT truly was
creative, a curious man who, above all was always true to himself”
Mr. Robert Thomas Henson, most commonly referred to as “RT”, was not just the
guy on the bicycle around town. He was an artist, a painter, an inventor, a sculptor,
a writer, a friend, a fascinating individual, and a genius in his own right.
Robert Thomas Henson passed away in November of 2007 at the age of 72...
an icon that can never be forgotten.
