David was born to Carl and Helen (Bever) Hendrix, the youngest of three boys, 12 years younger than Jim and eight years younger than Gordon. Being the youngest he learned the art of precision rock throwing in order to defend himself from brother Gordon. He enjoyed his early years of living on the farm four miles north east of Buhl, where he learned the value of hard work with his father and brothers. After graduating from Buhl High School, David and his best friends, Dan Kern, and Phil Busmann, all continued their education at Idaho State University and many good times were had by all. On February 1, 1971, he married Kathleen Albertson in Idaho Falls. David and Kathie made their home in Idaho Falls, where David worked at INL and later transferred to Argonne where he worked as an experimental technician and laser welder. David loved playing football and enjoyed his many friends. He kept in contact with them on Facebook. Every morning he would get up, share comments, agreeing, laughing, loving, being surprised, and sad, about the things that were being shared...and he loved it all! David enjoyed football, building and flying RC model airplanes, fishing, hunting and was a lifelong member of the Red Baron RC Modelers. Survivors beside Kathleen included sisters-in-law, Karan Hendrix and Dixie Hendrix and many special nieces and nephews who loved him dearly. Preceded by brothers Jim and Gordon Hendrix. Graveside service held Friday, October 2nd.
