Glen Eugene Hennings, age 88 of Findlay, Ohio passed away early Wednesday morning, January 9, 2019,
embraced with the love of his family at home.
Glen is now in Heaven with our Lord Jesus.
He was born June 28, 1930, to Walter A. Hennings and Edith Fredericks (Cecander) Hennings in southern
Wood County near Hoytville, Ohio.
Glen’s wife Mona Lou Hennings survives him along with their four children: Julie Ann Beaudry, Phoenix,

Blanchard, Ohio.
Also his sisters: Joann Burson, Avon, Ohio, Ellen Lou Lange (passed 2018). There are nephews, nieces,
grandchildren, great- and even great-great-grandchildren.
Glen and Mona met while both were serving in our United States Army in California. They celebrated their
65th wedding anniversary this past May 2018.
He retired from Clay Equipment Corporation of Cedar Falls, Iowa after 40 years. He also received many
honors and awards and was branch manager of the Fort Wayne, Indiana Branch.
Glen is also a Korean War veteran, life member of Immanuel Lutheran Church of Deshler, Ohio, attended St.
John’s Lutheran Church, former member of the Deshler Lions Club, Findlay Elks Club.
His passion for horses and admiration of the Arabian breed moved him and his family from town, back to
the country living, where he built, owned and managed Arabian Acre Stables, Horse and Training Facility
of Hoytville, Ohio. Glen and his family were also members of the Buckeye Western Horse Association and
the Northwest Ohio Arabian Horse Association. On beautiful days you would find Glen on the back of his
stallion (Serix Sundance) leading a trail ride either around our country block or at Oak Openings trails
and horse shows. Yes, he always carried beef jerky, it was the cowboy way.
Glen will be deeply missed by many.
