Sinai Ojendiz, age 47, of Russellville, passed away suddenly on Wednesday, December 20, 2023.
Sinai was a wonderful wife, loving mom, and devoted grandmother. She loved working at IHP and made many friends at work. She was a strong but sweet woman, with a big heart of gold, and her family, friends, and coworkers were blessed by having her in their lives. She was a great cook and made the best tamales ever.
