To say that Mike was a friend of many would be an understatement. A banterer extraordinaire, he would passionately argue with animated details, followed by a hug, playful pat on the back, or clink of a bottle. Always up for competition, Mike was also a loyal and loving friend, son, brother, uncle, and great uncle.
A 1976 graduate of Carrollton High School and 1983 graduate of Malone College. Professionally, Mike worked for Husky Energy, which later became Cenovous Energy, where he managed the transaction system and received a President's Award for his work on REI.
An avid lover of the Pittsburgh Pirates and Ohio State Athletics, he was a season ticket holder for Buckeye basketball and loved to share his 4 seats with family and friends.
Mike is survived by his mother: Erma Henry; Sister: Pam (Ron) Busby; Brother: Scott (Lynne) Henry; Nephews: Brian (Kristin) Cogan & Andy (Nikki) Henry; Nieces: Kaity (Devon) Day, Bethany (Seth) Hepner, & Kellie (Adam) McIntyre and their children.
In lieu of flowers, Memorial contributions may be made to Carrollton Field of Dreams, Carrollton Basketball, or the OSU James Cancer Center.
Per Mike's request, there will be no formal services.

Linda and I are so sorry to have heard about Mike's passing. I remember watching Mike play basketball for Carrollton High School when I first came to Carrollton back in the 1970's. Mike was outstanding as a basketball player under Paul Drotovick! He continued his success in athletics on the baseball diamond under Coach Jim Clelland as well. Mike was also was known as one of the best softball players in the Carrollton Rec league after high school. He was also mild-mannered and never had a bad word to say about anybody. He was a friend to all those who came into contact with in his life. He will be greatly missed.
