Tina L. Hyneman

1965 - 2022

Tina L. Hyneman, 57, of Watertown, passed away on September 13th following a brief battle with cancer. She was surrounded by those closest to her in her final moments and bravely passed to the other side.

Born in Watertown August 04, 1965, Tina was a daughter to Robert E. “Bob” and Caroline J. (Booth) Partridge. She was educated locally and obtained an associates degree in criminal justice from Jefferson Community College. She worked as a secretary for Dr. Tomm Maxon for over 20 years.

Tina was a bright light in this world and her personality just shined. Always sarcastic and lighthearted, you knew she liked you if she picked on you. She went above and beyond to help others, even if she might complain about it a little bit first. Her true joy was spending time with her family, and she beamed with pride for her daughter, Megan, Son-in-Law, Erik, and especially for her beloved granddaughter, Wyatt.

Tina loved going on adventures and was always the life of the party. She loved drinking wine, as long as it was sweet, and her favorite pastime was putting her toes in the sand and dipping her feet in the water at the beach. She was obsessed with her cat, Annabelle, and with cows, especially Jerseys with big eyes. She loved 80s music and the handsome Shemar Moore from Criminal Minds. She always gave more than she asked for and her soul was overflowing with love for others.

To know Tina was to love her, even on her sassy days. Some of her last words were that she was so lucky to have spent her life with the people she loves.

Tina is survived by her daughter, son-in-law, granddaughter, and grandchild due in January 2023 (Pillar Point), along with her sister, Trudy Blanchard (married to Paul Blanchard, Watertown), and brother, Doug Partridge (married to Robin Partridge, Calcium), plus countless cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends whom she considered family.

Tina's last wishes were that her life be celebrated and that our incredible loss not be mourned. Please join us for a Celebration of Life, fittingly at the Thousand Islands Winery on Sunday, September 25th, from 11am-2pm. The family would love for you to stop in for a minute to share a story about Tina, and to maybe even drink a glass of wine in her honor.

Burial will be held privately at the convenience of her family.

Arrangements are with Reed & Benoit Funeral Home, Inc.
