David Dwight Henslin, 78, of Rochester, MN, went to be with the Lord on February 9, 2024, after a battle with heart failure, under the care of Seasons Hospice.
David was born in Roseau, MN on July 3, 1945, to parents Marvin and Lucille (Krueger) Henslin. When David was 7, his family moved to California where he grew up. He met Sandra Hall when he was 18, and the couple were married two years later. A marriage where they lived together for 58 years, they were blessed with three children, Eric, Brent, and Heather.
Dave became a policeman in Pomona, CA. During that time, he also completed his college degree. Seven years later, he was given medical retirement due to an injury incurred. A few years later, he decided to attend Lutheran Seminary and become a Pastor. His ministry was in southern Minnesota with churches in Rochester, Elgin, St. Charles, and Winona.
Dave is survived by his wife, Sandy; children, Eric, Brent, and Heather, all of Rochester, MN; grandchildren, Isabella, Alivia, and Thane; great grandson, Julian; two brothers, Jim, and Charles; as well as many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by both of his parents; and a sister, Janet.
