Basil Lamarn Hendrix

Basil Lamarn Hendrix was born to the late Wanda Kay Hendrix on April 14, 1975 in Crossett, AR and shortly after, he was adopted by Linda and the late Sylvester Tucker.

As a young boy, he accepted Christ and throughout his life, along with having a kind spirit and caring heart, he was well known for being protective of his family and loved ones. He attended Crossett High School where he graduated in 1994. A few years later he moved to Texas, and over the years started self-owned businesses.
