Gary Henry Obituary
Gary Wayne Henry, age 69, of White Bluff, Tennessee, passed away on September 18, 2025.
Gary worked as a janitor at Westwood Elementary School in Fairview from the time the school opened until his retirement. He was a laid-back man who enjoyed fishing, watching TV, and watching wrestling.

He will be remembered for his kind heart, his easygoing nature, and the love he shared with those around him.
