Paul Hendrix Obituary
Paul graduated from Tyler High School in 1956. He was an outstanding track star, played football and basketball.
The game of golf captured his soul shortly after graduating high school. He was a quick learner with excellent hand/eye coordination.
He was an assistant pro at Tyler's Briarwood country club, then at Glen Lakes in Dallas, and Querbes Park in Shreveport, LA. Then head pro at Meadow Lake country club in Shreveport, LA. Back to Tyler to work as head pro where he started from. In his later life he had golf professional jobs in Cleveland, TX, Coldspring, TX, and Livingston, TX.
He was an outdoorsman with a love for hunting and fishing, a great storyteller with a wonderful sense of humor.
He will be missed by his family and friends.
Paul Hendrix is survived by his ex-wife, Wanda Hendrix; daughter and son-in-law, Holly and Mike King; daughter and son-in-law, Heidi and Mark Alexander; son, Chance Hendrix; grandson, Jake King; granddaughter, Katy Kelly; granddaughter, Lou Kasey King; great granddaughter, Sayge Salazar; and numerous other relatives and friends.

Paul had a great influence on getting me started in golf growing up at Briarwood CC in Tyler, Texas. I have enjoyed the sport and business of golf almost my entire life. Thank you Paul for being one of the great influences in my life to the game. May you Rest In Peace and enjoy all the great days of golf ahead.

I am sincerely sorry for your loss. May the true God of comfort, comfort those mourning and bind up the brokenhearted. Isaiah 61:1&2

Paul taught me, my siblings and my sons to play golf at Briarwood. Always a generous, kind, patient teacher. He and my dad were good friends as well as neighbors. Holly walked with my dad nearly every day, pointing out the storm drains as "bad news". Our family sends condolences for the loss of a good man.

So many good memories of Paul Hendrix, my brother, that do not know where to start. He was a generous soul always having parties with fish fries and bar-b-que parties and paying for all? Never charging you for anything rather giving to you and others. We all will miss him dearly. The years of 2003 thru 2017 we became closer and even bought a home at Cape Royale in order to visit him more often when he owned the golf course at Cape Royale at Coldspring, Texas. 77331. A brother I shall forever miss!
