Mr. Hinshaw was a good teacher. I see many of the things I did in life he laid the path for. I hope his family felt the love and comfort of God during this difficult time.

My condolences to the entire Hinshaw family. He was such a nice and caring man. Although he was not my Algebra teacher, he tutored me when I was failing in Mr. Briggs class. My parents made me go to Mr. Hinshaw´s class every morning before school to get help. I was able to pass with all his help. So sad to hear of his passing. He touched the lives of many. Rest in Peace sir.

Prayers to you and your family Dell! I remembered going to your house to get my quilts quilted by you and Carl would always sit in his favorite chair. He was a caring person and he would always asked about my family!

My condolences to his family. He was the best Math teacher I ever had at CUHS in the early 90´s. He was very calm, patient, and a genuinely nice person. I went from not understanding math to getting an A in his class. I will never forget him.
