Alan Hinks Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Alan was a man of kindness, love, and humor. The majority of his career was at IBM starting with sales of early mainframes and eventually progressing into management. In retirement, he enjoyed time with family, traveling, and perfecting his golf game.
Alan is survived by a son Michael Hinks and daughter-in-law Julie Nordstrom, daughter Suzanne Hill and son-in-law Ron Hill, grandchildren Griffin and Sarah Hill as well as several sisters, brothers, nieces and nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews, and extended family. He was preceded in death by his beloved wife Beverly, sister Jill, and brother Norman.
A celebration of life will be held in Tarpon Springs, FL in early December. In lieu of flowers or gifts, the family requests that memorial donations be made to the Alzheimer's Association (https://www.alz.org/get-involved-now) or Trinity Hospice Care of Georgia (3660 Cedarcrest Road, Suite 120, Acworth, GA 30101).
Alan will be deeply missed and forever remembered in our hearts.
