Rev. Hendrixson was born on August 13, 1929 in Vixen, LA to the union of Hugh and Grace McGhee Hendrixson and went to be with his Lord on Friday, December 28, 2012 at Haven Nursing Center in Columbia, LA. He attended Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church prior to his passing, but had ministered and been a pastor in the Caldwell Parish area for 34 years. He was a great example of what a Christian father and husband should be. The two loves of his life were his grandkids and his church and he gave 100% to both.
He was preceded in death by his parents and brother, James Hendrixson.
Survivors include his son, Rev. Jerry Wayne Hendrixson and wife, Pam; granddaughter, Jessica Hendrixson; grandson, Joshua Hendrixson and nephew, Jimmy Hendrixson.
