Martha Jean Hensley Grabill Sexton, 58, of Edwardsburg, died Friday, June 29, 2012 at her residence. She was born on March 16, 1954 in Hyden, Kentucky to William Henry and Iva Lee Begley Schuster Hensley. They preceded her in death. She was also preceded by two brothers, Sam Hensley and Charles Hensley. Jean was energetic and loved life. She loved her children and her grandchildren. She loved watching movies with the grandchildren like the Toy Story and Shrek series.
By herself, she loved old Westerns. She loved to knit, crochet and sew. She loved family get-together and cook-outs. She hardly ever sat still and was constantly on the go, whether going fishing or going out to eat. She was the world’s best lasagna maker – one piece and you were stuffed. Jean will be greatly missed by family and friends.
She is survived by two daughters, Felicia (Mark Rice) Grabill of Elkhart, Indiana, Tara (Josh Aaron) Sexton of Elkhart, Indiana; three sons, Fred (Bonnie) Sexton, Jr. of Osceola, Indiana, Christopher (Tracy) Grabill of Niles, Michigan, Marshall Joe Grabill Sexton of Elkhart, Indiana; thirteen grandchildren, Tiara Brown, Natasha Sexton, Amber Flora, Josi Sexton, Ashley Flora, Mackenzie Fraschetti, Joe Joe Grabill, Megan Sexton, Zechariah Grabill, Riley Sexton, Kaitlin Sexton, Jackson Aaron, Lexi Grabill; sisters, Mary (Charlie) Thrasher of Edwardsburg, Nora (Levi) Miller of Goshen, Indiana, Peggy (Ivan) Griffin of Millersburg, Indiana; brothers, Jeff (Joann) Hensley of White Cloud, Michigan, Bige (Brenda) Hensley of Louisville, Kentucky.
