Glen Hensley Obituary

KINGSPORT - Mr. Glen Hensley, age 90, Kingsport, entered his Heavenly home March 13, 2024, surrounded by his precious family.

He was born in Limestone to the late Tommie & Blannie Barlow Hensley. He was also preceded in death by a sister, Wilma Mongold, nephew, Mark Mongold, and very special double first cousin, Claude Hensley.

Mr. Hensley graduated High School from Washington College Academy and attended ETSU. He retired from AGC Glass Company after 46 years of service. He was kindhearted and warm spirited and all that met him adored him. His favorite past time was watching all UT sports with his daughter.

Left to cherish his memory are his loving wife of 63 years, Charlotte Jones Hensley; daughter and son-in-law, Vicki & Jeff Sparks; brother-in-law, Bill Mongold; and several nephews and nieces.

The family will receive friends from 2:00-3:30 pm Saturday, March 16, 2024, at Dillow-Taylor Funeral Home. Graveside will follow at Chuckey Community Cemetery.

The pallbearers will be Jimmy Shelton, Adam Brumit, Gavin Laughren, Michael Shelton, and Alan Hensley. Honorary pallbearers will be Mike Jones and Bill Mongold.
