Mark Stephen Hendricks passed away peacefully on Tuesday, January 31, 2012 at home surrounded by his family. Mark bravely battled pancreatic cancer for almost a year with dignity, humor and the love and support of family, friends and co-workers. He was born on January 18, 1956 in KC, MO.

His career began with Hallmark Cards, followed by Yellow Freight Systems, Paragon Electric in Blue Springs, MO and Midwest Cabinet in Ottawa, KS. His most recent employment was with MD Management in Mission, KS. Mark was always ready for a friendly political debate and rarely missed cheering for "his" KU Basketball team.
