Sarah J. Hendrickson 1938-2026

BRISTOLVILLE -- Sarah Jane "Sally" Hendrickson, 87, passed away peacefully on Sunday, Jan. 11, 2026, at The Cleveland Clinic.

She was born Feb. 15, 1938, in Girard, a daughter of Raymond Evans Richards and Cora Hughes Richards.

Sally, as she was affectionately known, was a 1956 graduate from Girard High School and Choffin with her LPN license. She loved her job as a nurse in the pediatric unit at Warren General Hospital. After retirement, she worked as a substitute nurse for Howland School District and Johnson Rubber Company.

She was a beautiful quilt maker. Sarah enjoyed gardening, camping, cruising and doing anything creative, but what she loved most was her family, whether it was cooking a huge holiday meal or just spending time with them. She was the best mom, and she loved her grandchildren immensely.

Sally is survived by her children, Raymond (Renee), Linda and David, seven grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.

In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, John D. Hendrickson, whom she married March 16, 1961; and sisters, Martha E. Richards and Leona M. Shontz.

Services will be 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026, at the Carl W. Hall Funeral Home, Warren, where friends may call 3 to 4 p.m.

Interment will be in Sager Memorial Park, Bristolville.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the Carl W. Hall Funeral Home.
