Dr. Hinds was my primary doctor since I was 17 years old (18 years) and served my entire family. The Little family is terribly shocked and saddened to hear of his sudden passing. All of his family and friends have our deepest condolences at this time.

My condolences and prayers are to the family of Dr. Hinds during this difficult time. Dr. Hinds was such a delight to visit. He had quite the vocabulary and was vocal of his opinion. He always talked about his children and made me laugh with the stories he shared. He will truly be missed. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
