Obituary published in the Portland Observer, August 17, 1916.
"Mrs. Judson O. Hendee, a well known and highly respected Portland woman, died with unusual suddenness, Saturday morning, at her fine home in this village, of an acute attack of neuralgia of the heart. She had been operated upon only the Sunday previous for appendicitis and seemed to be recovering rapidly. News of her sudden death was consequently a great surprise.
Mrs. Hendee was awakened at about 3:00 Saturday morning by a succession of sharp pains over the heart. Though the woman had great difficulty in getting her breath she managed to arouse her sister-in-law, Mrs. Walter Phillips, between gasps, and Drs. Martin and Allen were hurriedly summoned. The physicians were unable to relieve the woman and Mrs. Hendee passed away a few moments later.
Mrs. Hendee’s maiden name was Annie May Phillips. She was a daughter of Oscar F. Phillips and Mary Ann Bussey and was born on a farm near Collins, in Portland township, March 16, 1863.
She was therefore, at the time of her death in her 54th year.
November 2, 1884, she was baptized by Rev. A. C. Carman, of the Portland Baptist church, and was a faithful and consistent member of that society until her death. She became the wife of Judson O. Hendee March 30, 1885.
Mrs. Hendee was a great lover of her home and found unusual delight in making it beautiful. Though of a quiet, unassuming nature, she had a wide acquaintance, and the large attendance at the funeral services Monday afternoon, together with the profusion of flowers, testified in no uncertain way as to the high esteem in which she was held in the community.
The services, both at the house and at the grave, were conducted by Rev. John H. Stewart, of the Baptist church, who paid the deceased many a glowing tribute and comforted the surviving relatives and friends with words of condolence. A long procession of automobiles followed the remains to the cemetery.
Mrs. Hendee’s aged mother, Mrs. Mary Ann Phillips, her husband, Judson O. Hendee, and her brother, Wm. L. Phillips, of Portland, survive her. There are no children.
Up until the time of her operation Mrs. Hendee had entire charge of the care of her mother, who has long been in feeble health, and no one would have guessed that the daughter would be the first to go.
Mrs. Hendee formerly taught in the Portland schools and was always interested in matters of educational moment. She was also a member of the Portland Ladies’ Literary Club and was counted upon as one of the active workers. Her death is sincerely mourned in many quarters.

Additional information: "Established in 1920, by request of Anna M. Hendee, Portland, Michigan. The income is to be used to defray the medical and hospital expenses of poor persons at the University Hospital who are not county charges."
