He was a proud veteran of the United States Army and served during the Gulf War. He was born on April 12, 1966 in Saginaw, Michigan to Charles John William Henning and Jayne Caster, both of which have preceded him in death.

He attended Houghton Lake High school and Kirtland community college where he learned that life was the better teacher. The life he choose included outdoor living to include hunting, fishing and growing his own food. He was a care-giver to all including animals such as his beloved horse Sora that he barrel raced as a young man. He was a master craftsman working with wood and worked as a builder by trade. His creativity knew no boundaries and he would assist anyone in need on any project no matter how small or strange.
