Mr. Hinkle and Mrs. Hinkle's Family-
please know that it was a priviledge to have Mrs. Hinkle as my children's teacher and neighbor. She brought much joy to our family and to our neighborhood.

Mrs. Hinkle will be missed by many. She touched the lives of so many children including myself. Mrs. Hinkle will always be remembered as the teacher who set the foundation for education of many kindergartners. I am proud to say that I am now a teacher in my second year and it is because of my positive experience in school. She was the beginning of that journey. I send my best wishes to her loving husband, Coach Hinkle and her family. Take care and God Bless.
