Rudie Hendricks

Rudie Hendricks, 79, of Camp Point, died at 2:40 p.m. Tuesday, April 6, 2021 at his home.

Born December 16, 1941 in Adams County, Rudie was the only son of Herbert and Helen Eber Hendricks. He married June Mellon on October 19, 1963 in Liberty.  She survives.

Rudie worked as a farmer and horseman all his life. He worked as a farrier for many years and manufactured racehorse shoes.  He and June owned and operated Hendricks Standardbred Farm, raising and breeding Standardbred racehorses for over 35 years.  Rudie enjoyed hunting and fishing, woodworking, dancing, and farming small acreage, as well as operating a horse and carriage service for numerous events throughout the area.  His good-natured orneriness will be missed by all who knew him.
