MILESTONE BIRTHDAY

LeRoy Monroe Hensyel

100th Birthday

Open House from 1-4 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 11, 2011, at Sylvan House in Hayden.

LeRoy Monroe Hensyel celebrates his 100th birthday! At the age of 17, he drove himself and parents in a Model T out of the Iowa dustbowl depression all the way to Oregon for a new start in the lumber mills. The only way he could make it up hills was by driving backward up them!

LeRoy and his wife Grace were Missionaries their whole life. They started more than 150 churches which are mostly still going! They started in the Northwest working with the natives, loved Alaska and worked there during the '50s and '60s and worked more than 35 years in Mexico. So many adventures... so many miracles... He is smart, funny and lively. LeRoy's secret of longevity is having a good relationship with God. His favorite saying is "Keep Lookin' Up!"

He is a "national treasure!"
