BOBBY N. HENDRIX

Bobby N. Hendrix, Sr. of Monroe, Louisiana, was born on October 26, 1932, in 
Mangham, LA. He passed away March 29, 2017. He was a most loving husband, 
father, brother, uncle and friend. Visitation will be from 4:00 to 7:00 PM 
on March 31, 2017, at Mulhearn Funeral Home in Monroe.

Bobby was a well-known home builder and remodeler since the 1960's. A member 
of the Northeast La. Home Builders since 1968, Bobby served in all officer 
capacities on a local and state level. He also served as the Chairman and 
Trustee of the La. Home Builders Self Insured Fund. Bobby was inducted into 
the La. Home Builders Hall of Fame in 1994. This year Bobby received the 
N.E. LA HBA's first Lifetime Service Award.

Bobby also built one of the first St. Jude Dream Homes. Bobby was a 
perfectionist when it came to home building. His employees and children knew 
to… "do the job, do it right, or you're fired!"

Bobby also played on the 1951 LSU football team.

He had an extreme love for his family and cherished visits and calls from 
his siblings, children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and friends. 
Afternoon visits to Russell Moore Lumber and solving the world's problems 
with his friend Robert Moore was the highlight of each day. He will be 
greatly missed and always remembered in our hearts and minds as the sweet, 
honest, kind, and loving Bobby Hendrix! His profound love for animals was 
demonstrated by the peanut bar he gave to Blaze and Gracie, his faithful 
four-legged companions, after lunch each day.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Jurd and Janie Hendrix; his brother, 
Ellis Hendrix; sisters-in-law, Polly P. Kincaid, Patsy Hendrix, Carolyn 
Hendrix and brother-in-law, Will Henry Hastings.

Bobby is survived by his beloved wife, Mina P. Hendrix; children, Karen Anne 
Hart (Rusty), Bob Hendrix, Jr., and Marty Hendrix (Rhonda); sister, Hettie 
Ann Hastings; brothers, J.L. Hendrix (Rosemary), Tom Hendrix (Joan Ann), 
James "Imp" Hendrix, and Frank Hendrix (Barbara); grandchildren, Betsy 
Lemoine (Joey), Kelly Jordan (Chad), Ben Hart (Leah), Michael Hart (Calli), 
Matthew Hendrix (Dara), Tyler Hendrix (Kaitlyn), and Andrew Hendrix. He is 
also survived by 16 great grandchildren and 4 great-great grandchildren, as 
well as numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.

A private family graveside service will be held Saturday, April 1, 2017, at 
Mulhearn Memorial Park Cemetery.

Pallbearers will be his grandsons. Honorary pallbearers will be, Eddie 
Kincaid, Lane Kincaid, Jeff Gilbert, Rusty Hart, Fred Nyegaard, Bill 
Turnbough, and Carrick Inabnett.
