Henry Young Kuhl passed away on January 29th at the age of 91.  He was a co-founder with his father and brother Paul of the Kuhl Corporation established in 1909.  The company grew to become a U.S. leader in poultry equipment and commercial washing installations.  Henry held twenty patents that contributed to the success of his company.

Henry was active in civic affairs and served as a Hunterdon County, NJ. Republican Party Chairman for 35 years and was convention deligate for four presidents.  He was a lifelong member of the Flemington Presbyterian Church and was an ordained elder for over 50-years.  He received the Distinguished Citizen of the Year award from the Boys Scouts of America and recognition from the Hunterdon County Chamber of Commerce and from VIV Europe as an International Poultry Personality.

Henry was a consummate gentleman ever willing to discuss equipment, the poultry industry and world affairs. He guided the careers of many managers in addition to mentoring his sons Kevin and Jeff and his grandsons.

He will be laid to rest today with a service at the Flemington Presbyterian Church.  As a pioneer of the industry his contributions and creativity will be sadly missed.
