Lois Janet Hendricks, 84, of Myrtle Beach, SC, passed away peacefully at home on January 31, 2026. Born on January 2, 1942 in Monaville, WV, she was the daughter of the late Woodrow Wilson and Lois Alberta Sexton.

Janet was a 1959 graduate of Logan High School (Logan, WV). She, along with her husband, were the owners of Wiley & Nolan Distributing. She was also a licensed realtor with Century 21 of Logan and for several years worked in medical records at Charleston Area Medical Center.

She is survived by one daughter with whom she made her home, Amy Rawlings; sons, Todd (Eileen) Hendricks of Myrtle Beach, SC and Donovan (Robin) Hendricks of Little River, SC; grandchildren, Haley (Ronnie) Porter, Michaela (David) Weese, Sgt.

In addition to her family, Janet leaves behind a group of very special friends back home in West Virginia who are too numerous to list as well as her friend and caregiver in Myrtle Beach, Eileen Giampaolo.

Janet was a Christian and longtime member of the First Church of Christ in Chapmanville, WV. She was very involved with her church's Ladies' Group. She was also a volunteer with the Logan Regional Medical Center and member of the Red Hat Society.

She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and loyal friend. She was an excellent cook and loved hosting friends & family. Always gracious to those who entered her home, she greeted everyone with a warm, friendly smile. She was a skilled fisherman and, over the years, made many memorable trips to the Greenbrier River with her family. And most recently, she took great joy in attending the school and sports activities of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

The family would like to extend a special thank you to Centerwell Home Health, Amada Senior Care and Patriot Hospice.
