Huber Heights

Steve Hensley, born on January 28, 1936, in Leatherwood, Kentucky, passed away on March 31, 2025, in Dayton, Ohio. He was a beloved member of his community, known not only for his kind nature but also for his engaging spirit and sense of humor. Steve was a consummate jokester, bringing laughter and joy to those around him.

Throughout his life, Steve pursued various interests that enriched both his life and the lives of those he interacted with. He was particularly fond of puzzles, often challenging himself and others, and he found great joy in woodworking. A talented craftsman, Steve had the remarkable ability to create just about anything, from toys to furniture, showcasing his creativity and dedication.

Steve's commitment to his community and the Masonic fraternity was unwavering. He served as a Mason for 65 years, having started at the Hazard KY Lodge #676 before later affiliating with the Huber Heights Lodge #777. He also enjoyed his involvement with the Antioch Motor Corp and achieved the esteemed honor of being made a 32nd degree Mason within the Valley of Dayton Antioch. His enthusiasm for the Lodge was evident, and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

He is survived by his son, Jeff Hensley and his fiancé Stephanie; brother, Marion (Sue) Hensley; sister, Helen Dipalo; and many other extended relatives and friends.

Steve was preceded in death by his wife of 64 years, Mattie Hensley; father, Chester Hensley; mother, Ora Hensley; and siblings Carolyn Jett and Lynn Hensley.
