Stanton Clipper, Mar 1896

Mrs. G.A. Hendrick, wife of our postmaster, died at her home in this city
Thursday, March 19th, aged 65 years.  For the past four months Mrs. Hendrick had
been afflicted with valvular disease of the heart, and during the last few days
of her illness the disease assumed an extremely acute form and she was a great
sufferer.

Deceased leaves a husband, one son, F.H. Hendricks of this city, and one
daughter, Mrs. Louis Hale, Of Lyons, to mourn her loss.

The funeral will be held at the family residence on Bradford street Saturday
morning at 9 o’clock, conducted by Rev. W.C. Burns, who will use the Episcopal
service, at the request of the deceased.  The remains will be taken to Lyons for
burial.

Deceased was born in Richmond, Yorkshire county, England, June 22d, 1831.  She
came to America in 1839 with her parents who settled in New York state.  In 1855
she was united in marriage to Gideon A. Hendrick at Lyons, Mich., and during the
forty years that they traveled down through life together, she was a faithful,
loving wife, and a tender, devoted mother to the children that came to bless
their home.  In the fall of 1881 Mr. and Mrs. Hendrick moved to this city, and
during their residence of nearly 15 years here she won the respect and love of a
large number of friends, who recognized in her a true, Christian woman, whose
home was her kingdom, and whose life was pleasantly spent in ministering to the
comfort of her loved ones.  Besides the husband and children, who mourn the loss
of a beloved wife and mother, there are many warm friends, who sadly regret the
departure from our midst of a gentle, Christian lady.
