Many years ago I was in church services several times in the home of Dale's grandparents, Joe & Daisy Brown.

May God be with and comfort you his family.

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.

Mr Hensley was a favorite to many students at SGHS. I always remembered a smile to all the students. His teaching has changed many students in his class. He will be missed

My heart goes out to Rhonda and the rest of Dale's family. I cannot remember not knowing Dale, when I was younger I would see him riding horses by our house. Then I had him as a teacher at SGHS he was a great teacher and there are many interesting stories to be told of those days. Later he was assistant Principal to my kids. They always liked Dale. He has inspired and encouraged many people during his lifetime. It was an honor to have known him and call him my friend. Rest in Peace Dale your work here is done. Gallop into the sunset and ride with the Angels old friend.

Goodbye my friend Dale Hensley tell(the pygmy cowboy) Jim Fairchild I said hi. I remember all the time we went to Jim and Fay Fairchild's for the horse sales. Man did we have some good times. I remember getting stopped by the same cop in Rushville,In so many times the last time he just said go on Tennessee.Goodbye my friend.

I first came to know Dale at Greene Valley where we worked when we were both still college students.  I then taught at Camp Creek, Dale came a year later.  I went to South Greene and Dale soon came there too.  I always considered him a friend, and though I hadn't seen him in years, I would think of him from time to time.  He was also a friend to my children when they were at South Greene.  I will keep you family in my prayers.

You will forever be missed Ol friend, forever with us till we meet again. Our thoughts,prayers & love to your family. We know you are at peace with no pain & all the horses in heaven that we can only dream of. Lots of love old friend.

Always enjoyed having Dale come into Village Square Restaurant for a meal and enjoyed talking with him. He will be missed by everyone there.May God comfort his family at this time of sorrow. 
He was a joy to have.

My deepest sympathy to Dale's family. Dale recommended me as a horse show judge on many occasions and I always enjoyed judging the shows when he was the announcer. He will be sadly missed in the horse show world.

Rhonda and family: We were so sad to hear of Dale's passing. He was always a friend. Please accept our prayers during this difficult time. We are just a stone's throw away if you all need ANYTHING.

Dale was a man who touched many in the community. While he may no longer walk amongst us, his presence will remain forever.

"Dale was a very loving and giving man" May God help with comforting during this time off sorrow, that you find peace in this trying time. You all will be in our thoughts and prayers....

DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO THE FAMILY OF DALE'S FAMILY.  MAY GOD COMFORT EACH AND EVERYONE IN THIS TIME OF SORROW. HE WILL ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED BY THE STUDENTS AND STAFF AT SGHS.

Thanks for helping a kid get started with horses. That in itself is most noble. Helping a child become what they are today and many years ago you helped that kid and she has never forgotten that. May you enjoy your new home in the Kingdom of God.

RIP my teacher my friend Mr. Hensley Class of '77

Dale touched many and was a inspiration to all.  He was a good teacher a good neighbor and was kind to my son; giving him work to do around the ranch during his high school days.  My deepest sympathy to his family.

Mr. Hensley was a good man.  A strong man.  Many of our lives were forever changed and bettered because of the years Dale Hensley walked the halls of South Greene High School. My prayers for Gods' grace and comfort to his family during this difficult loss. Tammy Myers Class of 1978

Dear Rhonda and family our thoughts are with you, Dale was one of the truest friends I have ever known, I will miss him.

J. Dale touched many lives in our horse community here.  His goodness lives on is so many ways.  I pray for comfort for his family and friends in this time of grief.  I shall think of him every time I teach a child a riding lesson on one of the horses he sold to me.   May God's love soften this harsh time.

He was one of my most favorite teachers at SGHS.  My prayers go out to his family.  He will be missed by many.

Sending sympathy to the family for the loss of Dale.  I graduated with him from South Greene and attended college with him at Tusculum. It hurts to lose a fellow classmate.  As a teacher at Nolachuckey when he was at SGHS, I know the impact he had on many students.

Rhonda and family, though we are far away, our thoughts and prayers are with you all.

To Mr Hensley's Family; I am sorry for your loss and I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.  I was blessed to have Mr Hensley as a teacher in high school.  He was so intelligent and funny and the time spent in his classes are some of my best memories of high school.  Mr Hensley was a great man and he will be missed.

Dale you were a kind great man. I pray for you and your family that God comforts you all and gives you strength. Sending much love <3 you'll be missed dearly.

Rhonda, I am so sorry to hear of Dale's passing. Peace to you and your family. If I can help in any way, Please let me know.

To Family....So sorry. Dale was such a great man and friend. He will be sadly missed.  Prayers that God will give you the strength and comfort to get thru these diffcult times..........

I will never forget the wonderful memories made with Dale. Jeff and I have been so many places with him that we probably wouldn't have made it to on our own. We will always remember one of the greatest friends we have ever had.

dale you will be missed  you was a good friend  thank you for being my and dustin friend tim morgan

He was my teacher and enjoied every day in class talking about horse and farming and everything but english but thats ok we didnt want to do english anyway

Rhonda, although I never met Dale...but if a wife is a reflection of her husband, I'm sure he was a wonderful, kind, and caring  person.  My prayers go out to you and your children.  Sincerest Sympathies.

He would always lend a hand, respect, or inspiration to anyone that needed it. He was a great mentor in life, I look back at all the life lessons learned during the time I spent with him over the years. He would never hold anything back, Dale would always tell you how it was. If there was work to be done, than he expected it to be done. This was a great life lesson, for myself and any others that had the privelege of sharing time with him. Dale Hensley will always be missed in the Johnson House, its tough to lose such a Close Friend and Mentor.

You will be greatly missed by many. I appreciate everything you have done for us over the years. You are one of a kind and a truly special man in the hearts of so many.

To his family may God comfort you during this time of sorrow. Mr. Hensley was such an important part of my high school days. He made me love books more than I already did. I have thought of him often over the years as my favorite teacher. He will be sadly missed by me and alot of people.

To the family of Dale I send you my deepest sympthany he was a very true an dear friend to our family he an my late husband Jim Fairchild were great friends.  I have several great memories of staying at Dale's house on our summer vacations before the birth of our daughter.  He will be missed by many but he an Jim can now auctioneer together again and be pain free.

Deepest thoughts,

To Family: May GOD hold and comfort you during this time of sorrow. Please accept our condolence. Dale will always be in our hearts and we will always remember the good times. May God bless each and everyone.

Dale was such an inspiration for me.  He was always there for me in school and in the horse world.  I got to spend a lot of time on the road with him traveling to Pennsylvania, Indiana, West Virginia, and numerous other places for horse sales.  I thought the world of him and will miss him terribly.  My thoughts go out to Rhonda, Kelly, and Kevin and the rest of his beloved friends and family.
