To the Hensley Families: We were sad to learn of Mike’s passing. In addition to being a member of our extended family, Mike was a very good friend of mine growing up in Old Fort. We had a lot of school activities together, and he was always fun to be around and so kind and such a gentleman. I wish him the best in his next journey. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

may his memories bring you comfort in the days to come.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I was a classmate and friend of Mike’s. He was such a great guy and we had so much fun while in school. I was looking at the photos of Mike and family and it’s obvious he had a beautiful family. I pray for peace and comfort for all of you.
Nancy and family, my love and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. I know that Mike will be missed greatly by you all, as he will by his church family. We have the promise that we will see him again. Love you, Denise
Our deepest sympathy is with all of you in Mike’s family. Ann has been a wonderful part of our family, the Wilsons, for a long time and we love her dearly. We know how close all of you are and we care about you too. Our prayers are with you. May God hold you close in this difficult time. With love, Mary Lee Wilson Lytle
Nancy and family, Harriet, Ann and Mark, our prayers and sympathy are with you. We sure shared many, many wonderful times growing up together. It always seemed that we were an extended family. God bless every one of you.
Our family’s deepest sympathy to yours. I still have many fond memories of our years in Old Fort. John (Johnny) and Mary Ellen Walker
Mike was one-of-a-kind. I remember his wonderful ability to represent our products while he worked with us at Momar. One of the most passionate, hardest workers I have met in my 30+ years as the company sales manager. Now, a well-deserved rest and reunion with Scott and other members of the family. Rest in peace, my friend. Nancy, all the best to you. May you and the children enjoy the memories of Michael as much as I will.
Doug, we were so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad last night at choir. If you are an example of a ‘chip off the old block’ he must have been a wonderful man. We are keeping you in our prayers. Blessings, Pam and George Danz
