- Biography*: He was a prominent physician in Lenoir, NC, serving as a family doctor, but with special training in heart ailments. He opened his office in Lenoir in 1926, and continued his practice in Lenoir until his death. Dr. Hedrick seemed tireless as he went about his work in ministering to the sick. He was truly a family doctor, and continued to make house calls throughout his long career. Some of these calls extended beyond Lenoir, and he was known to travel by foot, horse, railroad hand car, and automobile. His hospital patients were cheered by his appearance at their bedside, usually three times per day. He would not leave those who were very sick. His patients knew his love for roses, and rarely was he caught without one in his lapel. He loved to sing old familiar songs, and they seemed to bring out the joy that was in his heart. In his early practice his office calls were just $1 each. These later were increased to $3 and in 1973 they were $5. He was known for his speed whether driving his car, giving a shot, or swabbing a throat. Though busy with his extensive medical practices, he devoted much of his time to his church, to fraternal organizations, and to other services. He was a life-long member of Zion (Reformed) United Church of Christ, and was very active in all of its work. Dr. Hedrick was prominent in medical circles, having served as president of the Caldwell County Heart Association, president of the Board of Medical Examiners of the State of NC, Chief of Staff of the Caldwell County Hospital, and an active member of other medical groups. Dr. Hedrick liked sports, and in early life excelled in football, basketball, tennis and golf. He was a physician for the Lenoir High School Football Team for 45 years. Dr. Hedrick was a strong family man, a devoted husband, father, and grandfather. He never failed to give his wife credit for rearing his family. Yet, his children were always aware of his love, guidance and trust. He looked forward to all gatherings of people, but most of all to the Hedrick reunion. As a hobby he collected old clocks, old coins, silver certificates and silver dollars. He was the first Vice President and promoter of The Hedrick Family Reunion in 1951. On 11 Dec., 1973, seven days before his death, the people of Caldwell County honored Dr. Hedrick by naming him "Man of the Year". At his funeral on 11 Dec., 1973, his pastor, Rev. Robert E. Myers, used as his topic "JOY". This seemed most appropriate because Dr. Hedrick lived his life first for JESUS - OTHERS - YOU. Although Dr. Hedrick died during the Christmas season, he had spent his life bringing "Christmas" into the lives of all who knew him.
