Our Visitors
Gail Hensley
Gail and husband Tom
having lots of fun
Moved to Morning Pointe
in February 2014
Gail Hensley was born in Glendale,
Kentucky. She was raised in an
orphanage, Kentucky Baptist
Children's House, until age 18.
Gail married her first husband,
Stanley, at age 18 and together they
had four children, Jimmy, Sharon,
Rhonda and Dorsey. After divorcing,
Gail met Tom and they were married.
He passed away about six years ago.
Together they traveled and had lots of
fun.
Gail worked as a "metermaid" or
parking enforcement officer, in
Lexington. She was employed for
nearly 25 years and loved every
minute of it. Gail recalls lots of
interesting individuals during her work
and always recommended "laughing
things off."
Gail loved to paint and spent many
hours creating beautiful masterpieces,
some of which she proudly displays in
her apartment at Morning Pointe of
Lexington.
She also enjoyed quilting, a craft
which she taught herself. Gail stated
quilting was fun because "it kept her
mind busy." Although Gail did lots of
traveling, one place she has not yet
visited is Graceland in Tennessee. Gail
is a huge Elvis fan and always thought
visiting his famous home would help
her feel closer to him.
One of Gail's favorite memories is of
playing with the other children at the
orphanage where she grew up. Gail
says of the other children, "they are
like my family and we keep in
Ron Wilburn
Familar piano songs
Dale Cole
Favorite Gospel Songs
Karen Harmon
Piano and songs
Gail was a painter
and loved to quilt
touch."
Gail moved to Morning Pointe of
Lexington in 2014. She loves to laugh
and easily makes friends with whom
she enjoys sharing favorite memories.
Love on a Leash
