For those of you who knew or remember Kevin Hendrick, he has lost his battle with cancer and has left his pain and suffering behind. No other details available.

Re: Kevin Hendricks
The types of relationships we have now are odd, where we never meet some people in-person, but become fairly close friends with them online.
He had a wonderful sense of humor and wit, and was always ready to deliver a good clean joke. Someone gave me a heads up about his health, and I had also noticed that he hadn’t been active online. I gave him a call a couple of months ago and actually had a real time phone call with him. Just as with Tracy Luna and so many others, he had completely come to terms with his fate but was in good spirits. I feel privileged that I was able to speak with him.

Re: Kevin Hendricks
I am going to miss those jokes, the Facebook conversations, and those occasional emails. I’m glad you got to talk with him. I didn’t realize his condition was that advanced, so I missed the opportunity. The back row upstairs is adding a good one to its ranks today.bloke wrote: ↑Tue Dec 28, 2021 8:21 am The types of relationships we have now are odd, where we never meet some people in-person, but become fairly close friends with them online.

Re: Kevin Hendricks
Hendrick or Hendricks?
I looked him up on the old site. I'm not sure I remember any direct interactions with him, but he was a long-time member, so.Im sure we crossed paths at some point. Sad news any time, particularly this time.of year. RIP

Re: Kevin Hendricks
Hendrick. I corrected it. I should know better than to use voice texting.

Re: Kevin Hendrick
I was going to mention this as well. Never knew him, but recently came across some mouthpiece advice he posted awhile back and wanted to ask him about something. I guess that ship has sailed. RIP Kevin.

Re: Kevin Hendrick
Very sad. Kevin and I only knew each other online, but he shared some great ideas for "DIY" instrument repair tools.

Re: Kevin Hendrick
I was fortunate to have sat next to Kevin for many years at Western Michigan University and local community bands. He had a monster talent - I never heard him play a wrong note. Ever! He was a hoot to talk with - he had a very clever wit and was incredibly smart. He could discuss any subject at length. I will miss him a great deal.
