ST. GEORGE — A CEO who was killed in an crash in Ogden Canyon on July 6 was lauded in southern Utah as a visionary and industry leader. Richard David Hendrickson and his daughter, Sally, were killed in an incident on state Route 39 in Ogden Canyon over the weekend after a mini bulldozer broke loose and fell on top of a pickup truck.
Utah Highway Patrol troopers and emergency personnel responded July 6 on a road near the Ogden Canyon area of Weber County on a report of a two-vehicle crash, according to information obtained Monday from Utah Highway Patrol Lt. Cameron Roden.
Authorities say the driver of a tow truck hauling a mini bulldozer was heading east when he came upon a curve. When he began to negotiate the curve, the mini bulldozer broke free, slid off the driver's side of the wrecker and landed on top of a GMC pickup truck, which was pulling a boat and heading in the opposite direction.
Hendrickson was known throughout the industry for his ability to connect with people — both within Lifetime and among its vendors and suppliers.
