Lawrence Hincker Obituary

Published by Behr's Funeral Home on Oct. 30, 2015.
Lawrence Lee Hincker, age 67, of Dubuque, IA, passed away peacefully at 10:50 a.m. on Wednesday, October 28, 2015 at his home. To honor Lawrence's life, funeral services will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Thursday, November 5, 2015, at the Church of the Resurrection, 4300 Asbury Road, with Rev. Mark D. Murphy officiating. Burial will be in Linwood Cemetery where full military honors will be accorded by the Dubuque Marine Corps League. Behr Funeral Home, 1491 Main Street is in charge of arrangements. Lawrence was born on July 15, 1948 in Dubuque, son of Charles D. and Leslie N. (Niblo) Hincker. Lawrence proudly and honorably served his country with the U.S. Army Green Berets and courageously completed two full tours in Vietnam. His bravery was very evident due to the fact that he volunteered for service and his commitment to God and country were undeniable when he signed up for a second tour. Lawrence was a committed and hard worker throughout his life and even though his later years were not always easy, he continued to push through each day the best he could. Lawrence is resting safely in the Lord's arms now and the physical ailments which plagued his earthly body are no longer a cross for his soul to bear. We will miss you Lawrence and we thank you for the leadership, example and all the lessons you taught us along your way. Lawrence is survived by his siblings, Cheryl Schwind, Dubuque, IA, Douglas (Jo Ellen) Hincker, Plymouth, MI; and also numerous nieces and nephews. Lawrence was preceded in death by his parents and a brother, Stephen Hincker. A Lawrence L. Hincker memorial fund has been established.
