Not sure what to say?

Irene, Patty & Bobby, I am so sorry to hear about Jim. This has been a most horrible year. Not only were you two the best to work with, Irene, you got called "Mom" even before I did. You & Jim were always Derek's "other" parents. I know Jim will take care of him till we're all together again. All our love, Debbie & Steve

Jim hired me in 1973 to work as a transporter in Radiology at RGH. Without his belief in me as a 16 year old, I probably never would have gone on to a successful 35 year career at the hospital. He always had interesting and insightful messages to deliver, was funny and made people laugh all the time. In later years, he was a mentor for many with his passion for running including myself. I am already thinking about my next race and dedicating it to "Mr. Marathon" Irene, Patty, and Bob my...

Mr. Hendy was one of my first bosses I ever had. I enjoyed working because he was such a great guy with such a great sense of humor. My heart goes out to the Hendy family and hope that with prayer and family support they will find comfort...God Bless

Irene, my sincere condolences. Jim was a great friend so many years ago when I was at RGH and you both were keeping me out of trouble with the techs. Great memories of biking around Webster and along the barge canal. Getting me to run. Hanging around the pool in the summer with the kids listening to Phil Rizzuto's Yankee's broadcasts. Valued memories.

Irene, Patty and Bob, You will be in my thoughts tomorrow. Like I said to you today, we all grew up together-the 70's, 80's, 90's -all the good years in Radiology. We were a family. I will never forget Jim and his kindness to my family and myself. You will continue to be in my prayers. Debbie Place

With great sorrow to the entire Hendy family. Mr. Hendy was a true gentleman. When I was employed at RGH, never a day went by that he didn't have that contangious smile. May he Rest in Peace. God Bless you all.

Jim,
You were the best of the best. You were a great friend, and always made me laugh. I will truly miss our friendship.
My deepest sympathy to the Hendy family.

Irene, Patty, Bob and family,
Having worked so closely with Jim for many years at RGH, I felt I really got to know him so personally. He was kind, funny, and so serious about his work and so passionate about his family. I watched him many times as he would so proudly tell me about his vacations w Irene, Runs w Bob, the kids dating and marriages and of course the grandchildren! He loved you all so deeply. He was dedicated to his work, to the dept, to RGH but most of all to his family. He...

Jim was my sisters manager. It was a happy time for all. He was kind, fair, ethical, and treated everyone with respect. Everyone admired Jim. When he retired, it was sad to see him go. Now, he is running with the angels. We'll all see him again someday in Heaven. RIP, Jim Condolences to his family and friends who loved him. Linda
