William Thomas Hendee, known to family and friends as Bill, passed away on August 17, 2018 in Phoenix, Arizona, at the age of 62. Bill was born in Chicago, Illinois on January 9, 1956 to William Ronald and Phyllis Hildegarde (Jones) Hendee.
Bill was the Chief Engineer at CBRE, Inc after being a Plant Manager at Stewart’s Coffee.
On July 26, 1975, Bill married the love of his life, Claudia Flores Hendee. Together they raised three beautiful children.
A man of true altruism, Bill spent his life giving and taking care of others. His generosity and his kind heart made him a highly respected and embedded member of his community. Incredibly intelligent and witty beyond compare, Bill’s family recalls his ability to do anything, fix anything, or make anything. He was a carpenter that could build whatever you asked of him; coffee tables, chairs, you name it and Bill could make it.
Bill is survived by his wife Claudia (nee Flores); children William A. Hendee, Jennifer Worsham, and Jessica Bones; siblings Michael (Terri), David (Mary Kay), Cheryl (Ralph), Pam, Heidi (Larry) Fatica, Janet, and sister-in-law Sue; grandchildren Anthony E.
