A devastating accident in Ogden Canyon on Saturday claimed the lives of Richard David Hendrickson, CEO and president of Lifetime Products, and his 16-year-old daughter, Sally. According to the Utah Highway Patrol, a bulldozer being towed by a truck became detached and crashed onto their pickup truck, resulting in their immediate deaths.
Hendrickson was more than just a business leader, according to Lifetime Products. He was a man of diverse talents, known for his legendary mechanical skills and extraordinary ability to connect with people. Utah Governor Spencer Cox, a friend of Hendrickson, expressed his condolences, stating, “I mourn the loss of my friend and leader… my thoughts are with the family.
The community is deeply affected by this tragic event. Hendrickson was also the stake president of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Two other passengers in the pickup truck sustained non-life-threatening injuries. The accident occurred on Saturday at 12:49 PM, and Hendrickson and Sally were pronounced dead at the scene.
The family and friends of Richard and Sally are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. They will be greatly missed by the community, and their loss will be deeply felt.
