I was a student of Mr Hendricks at Queensborough. He was an amazing teacher and mentor to all the kids. Very caring and always available to help. My deepest condolences to the entire family and those who loved him. The heavens have gained an incredible angel and the world has lost one of the great ones, who helped shape many many young minds. Rest in peace Mr Hendricks. You will always remain in my heart and thoughts. God bless
