Michael O’Connor Hendrix
Michael O’Connor Hendrix, 18, of Byron passed away on Tuesday, September 11, 2018.
Michael was born on September 19, 1999 in Rochester to Shane and Jackie (O’Connor) Hendrix. He attended school in Byron. When you could not find Michael at school he was at the farm with his cows. Michael worked at G-Flowing Springs Farm in Eyota. Farming was his passion. Michael enjoyed hunting, fishing, trap-shooting and spending time with his family. Family and friends were very important to him. Michael was the type of person that made sure he told everyone he loved them before he left, especially his mom and dad, even leaving early for work at 3:45am in the morning.
Michael is survived by his parents, Shane and Jackie; a sister, Shannah (Adam) Badger; his little buddy nephew, Kyler and his “hey little girl” niece Alayna; grandparents, Patrick O’Connor, Bonnie O’Connor and Donna Hendrix; his fur babies, Rocky, Charleigh Girl, Gracie and many other family members and the most amazing friends a young man could have.
A Celebration of Life for Michael will be at 11:00am, Monday, September 17, 2018 at Community Celebration Church, Kasson (27337 County Hwy 34), with Pastor Steve Larson officiating. Visitation will be Sunday, September 16, 2018 from Noon – 4:00pm at Byron Funeral Home and one hour prior to the service on Monday at the church. Burial will be at Mount Hope Cemetery in Kalmar Township.
Memorials are suggested to the family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to your family during this time. I never got the pleasure of meeting Michael, but my nephew Jimmy was very close to him I know and spoke very highly of him and quite often, it's as if I did know him ? He was not only Jimmy's cousin but his best friend. My heart is with you all and I am saying prayers for you daily.
My heart is so very heavy for you all. Such a wonderful young man.
I wish I could be there to give you big hugs and someone to help you through this devastating time. I love you guys with all my heart. May God wrap your arms around you and comfort you each and everyday.
I bet Grandpa is at the pearly gates with big wide open arms to give him big hugs.

I only met Michael a couple of times in his short life. From what I noticed he enjoyed life and the outdoors (like many family members).
Shane, Jackie and Donna (of course the list could go on and on as family is plentiful) I am so very sorry for your lost and nothing I say can make anything better right now. Just stay close to family.
I met Michael while he was a student at ROC, and he was like "hey you are a Radke? We are related!!!" He had quite the following of friends, A very outgoing, crazy , wild young man, taken way to soon. Fly High Michael! hugs and prayers to his Family.
Shane,
