Condolence: Debbie, Chrissy and Justin, my heart is broken for all of you. I have such wonderful memories of the days I would spend at your house growing up and the friendships we had. I will always remember him working in the garden, fishing with Justin, cleaning the pool for us or driving me home, once again, because I was too scared to spend the night. I also have great memories of the my days at EBHS at the football games with Ralph the coach. He was a great man and my prayers are with all of you in the days, weeks and months ahead. Time does make it easier but the heartache never truly goes away. We love each of you.

Condolence: I have many wonderful memories of my time as a student at East Bank High Scholl during 1973-1976. Coach Hensley and the other coaches loved teasing me because I was easily embarrassed and would giggle. He and the other coaches were so talented and they had a special brotherhood. We were truly blessed to have them as part of the Pioneer family! RIP Coach.
