Bob Hines Obituary
COOKEVILLE-Robert S. Hines “Bob” passed on July 31,2025.
Hailing from the Florida coast to the deep blue waters of Kona on the Big Island of Hawai’i to his resting place of Cookeville, Tennessee.
His path as a giver was reflected in his life long work in the hospitality world. His generosity and warmth was felt by all lucky enough to cross his path.
A pillar of the community in Cookeville, his service as a Eucharistic Minister of St Michael’s Church and dedication to the Veteran community will be remembered.
The family is honoring Bob’s wishes with a celebration of life and scattering of ashes to be held in Kona, Hawai’i.
Forever in our hearts ~ Aloha ‘oe
