I will always remember Mr. Hines as a father who took great pride and joy in his children and grandchildren and loved them unconditionally.A husband who adored and cherished his wife Ginny. He was a man of steadfast and prayerful faith. His commitment and testimony shined in his spirit. An honest, sincere and determined leader and competitor whose only loss was keeping the squirrels from the bird feeders in the backyard. Even then, a tap on the window only the brave ones would dare him to confront them.....which he did! He delighted in lively conversations and welcomed conflicting points of view by matter of factly allowing one to voice them as he patiently listened. He was a giver not a taker. He was honest,caring and supportive to many as well as an inspiration to always do better, to be better and never limit ones self. His legacy will continue with you his children and grandchildren. His presence will always be in your hearts, your wonderful memories shared together and one day you will once again be reunited. My thoughts, love and prayers are with you.
