Obituary:
Hendrick, Kay L. (nee VanDenHoek), Kay Hendrick, of Menasha, age 52 years, found eternal peace on January 16, 2008. Kay was born on January 19, 1955, to Alvin and Kayrl (Landaal) VanDenHoek in Waupun, Wisconsin. She was a 1973 graduate of Waupun High School where she was involved in many organizations and activities, including yearbook staff, the school newspaper, homecoming queen, student council, pep club, prom court, debate, and service club. Kay went on to the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh where she graduated with a degree in education in 1977. That same year, she and Michael Hendrick were married. Kay and Mike moved from Oshkosh to Menasha where they would raise two beautiful children; Elizabeth and Adam.
While raising her children, Kay also found time to be a bookkeeper for Pedro's Mexican Restaurant, an assistant librarian at Maplewood Middle School, and a laboratory technician at Kimberly-Clark until health issues forced her to call it quits.
