Bo Kendrick Obituary

Wilfred Stanley “Bo” Kendrick was born in Lufkin, Texas July 19, 1949. God called him to his Heavenly Home on August 11, 2024, at his residence with his devoted family at his side.


Bo is preceded in death by his father and mother Wilfred Singleton and Donnie Lee Kendrick, Siblings Bobby Kendrick, Owen Ray Kendrick, Winda Stringer, and Marilyn “Tene” Kendrick.


Bo is survived by his wife of 52 years Cindy Kendrick, son Zeth Dwain Kendrick and wife NaTasha, grandchildren Davney Leigh Kendrick, Zeth Iain Kendrick, daughter Tamera Mollette and husband James and their children Krista Anstead and husband James, Cory Mollette, two sisters Kathy Smith and husband Kenny and Betty Phillips and husband Steve.


Bo proudly served in The US Army during the Vietnam Era.  He had a great love for his Harley Davidson Motorcycle, and you would find him going down the road with the wind behind him. He worked as a long-haul truck driver many years driving his Peterbilt down the highway. He loved to be on the road going somewhere. He enjoyed going to the lake and spending time on the water fishing. Bo was a faithful member of the Josserand Baptist Church, and he truly loved the church and the church family. He never missed a single service.  His grand-babies were the apple of his eye. He loved spending time playing ball or just watching TV with them by his side.


Bo will be truly missed and has left us with a treasure of memories that we will cherish in our hearts forever.
