September 24, 1932 — May 8, 2020

Charles “Charlie” R. Hensel Sr, age 87, and a lifelong resident of Columbus, Ohio, passed away on May 8, 2020. A longtime member of St. James Parish and the Carpenters Local Union #200, Charlie made friends everywhere he went, and he never met a stranger.

He is preceded in death by his beloved wife of 53 years Martha Hensel, brothers John Roger, Freddie, Bob, Mike Sr., Joe, and Frank, sisters Margaret Ann Hensel, and Susie Ireland. Charlie is survived by his 3 sons, Ben (Barb) Hensel of Columbus, Charles Jr. (Lori) Hensel of Grove City, and Rex (Cindy) Hensel of Gahanna, brother Patrick (Sharon) Hensel of Blacklick, and Sister Carolyn (Gordon) Groves of Albuquerque, NM.

Due to current health concerns, the family will be having a private ceremony, however a live stream will be available on shaw-davis.com.
