Haela Gabrielle Hensley

On May 11, 1998 at 12:14 am, God sent a joyous blessing to
the Hensley and Hudgins families. Haela Gabrielle Hensley was
born to Robert Christopher and Lana Gayle Hudgins Hensley.
Haela always had a big, wide smile for everyone.  She
became the center of the lives of her family.
On Sept. 11, 1998, God took Haela home to be with Him.  She
has left many broken hearts but oh!, so many wonderful
moments in memory of the beautiful life that she lived.  Haela
will always be with these families, for God gave us memories to
help us in our heartache.  Her mama and daddy's and
grandparent's love for her will never die and she will be standing
by the river waiting for us.
Haela left behind for awhile her parents; maternal
grandparents, H.G. and Brenda Littrell Hudgins of Asheville,
paternal-grandparents, Claude J. and Judy Ann Hampton
Hensley of Asheville, paternal great- grandmother Louise
Hensley of Asheville and paternal great-grandparents, George
and Mabel Follett of Asheville.

Home conducted by the Rev. Lee Davis.  Interment will be in
Woodlawn Cemetery.
The family will receive friends from 4 until 6 pm Sunday at
