The motorcoach industry is mourning two long-time enthusiasts.
Briggs Finly Hensley, 79, of Virginia, passed away July 28 and headed off on what his family called his “final road trip.” While he held many jobs over his lifetime, his favorite was driving a bus and during a career with Lynchburg Bus Service and Abbott Bus Lines, he visited 49 states and Canada. To honor his love of motorcoaches, Abbott Bus Lines escorted him to the final resting place through a motorcoach caravan. Condolences can be sent to tharpfuneralhome.com.
