In memory of Joshua Hendricks 1979-2009 |
Joshua Aaron Hendricks, age
30, of Grand Rapids, ended his journey on earth on February 21, 2009 after
a courageous five year fight against brain cancer. Joshua is survived
by his loving wife, Marni (married October 15, 2005; the best day of Joshua
and Marni's lives); and his sons, Gabriel Michael (2) and Jacob Robert
(1). The son of Robert and Mary Elizabeth Hendricks, Joshua was born in
Grand Rapids, Michigan on January 27, 1979. He was employed as marketing
associate with Sysco Corporation, was a member of Gilda's Club and attended
St. Isidore Catholic Church. He was a loyal friend of Bill W. for six
years. Joshua was a loving husband and father and was happiest spending
time with his family and helping others. He enjoyed mountain biking and
skiing and was known for his wonderful cooking. He will forever be remembered
for his strength and positive attitude and would want those who loved
him to remember that life is working out "just right". In addition to
his family at home and his parents, Joshua is survived by his sisters,
Elizabeth (Nathaniel) Lloyd (nieces Isabel and Sophia) and Adrian Hendricks
of Grand Rapids; his mother-in-law, Carolyn Rembusch; his brothers-in-law,
Josh and Peter Rembusch of Indianapolis; grandparents, Ruth Richardson
and Allen (Karen) Hendricks of California. Mass of Christian Burial will

Church, 628 Diamond NE, Rev. Donald E. Lomasiewicz, presiding. Interment
is at Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens. Rosary will be recited Tuesday, February
