In July 2024, a tragic accident in Ogden Canyon, Utah, claimed the lives of Richard Hendrickson, 57, CEO of Lifetime Products, and his 16-year-old daughter, Sally. A mini bulldozer fell from a tow truck and crushed their pickup as they traveled with family.

Richard and Sally died at the scene. His wife and two other children sustained non-life-threatening injuries; a third daughter was abroad.

Lifetime Products mourned the loss of its visionary leader, remembering Richard’s rise from welder to CEO.
