Lifetime Products honored Hendrickson in a statement, saying he was “more than a company leader.”

“Richard was more than a company leader – he was also a visionary and a friend to many within our business and the wider community,” the statement said. “He is known for having a wide range of skills and interests.”

A drunk driver faces 17 years in prison for killing a woman and her baby in a 141 mph crash.

“His mechanical skills are legendary, often surprising the engineers in the company. He also excelled in finance, management, and sales,” the statement continued. “But above all, he cared about people, both within Lifetime and among its vendors and suppliers. He had a special ability to connect with others, no matter their position. This made all his other talents even more remarkable.”

Richard led a successful company and was also the stake president of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

In his condolence message to the Hendrickson family on X, Utah Governor Spencer Cox said, “Richard was a friend and incredible leader.”

“We are heartbroken by his tragic passing with his daughter Sally,” Cox stated. “We mourn with the surviving members of his family and pray they will find comfort and healing.“
