Gloria Jean "Jeannie" Hart (nee Hinton)



Gloria Jean "Jeannie" Hart (nee Hinton), 66, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, made her heavenly transition on Monday, April 18, 2016. Unable to escape, she and her companion Lindell Lewis died in a tragic house fire.

Affectionately known as Jeannie, she was born May 6, 1949 in Meridian, Miss., and lived her early years in Meridian and Arizona until relocating to Akron in 1962. She attended the Akron Public Schools and lived on the eastside for most of her entire stay in Akron. She retired from Chrysler Stamping Plant after 30 years of service. Jeannie was a member of Zion Temple Baptist Church and served with the culinary arts, hospitality, and women's ministries.

Jeannie was devoted to her children and grandchildren; and loved life, family, and friends. She was funny, kind, generous, outgoing, sassy, loving, a pot stirrer, full of joy and advice.

Her husband, Samuel J. Hart; parents, Esaw J. and Mary J. Hinton; and brother, James (Pop) preceded her in death. Jeannie is survived by her children, Monique (Wendell) Scott of Decatur, Ga. and Tamika Hart; grandchildren, Myles, Peyton, Evin, and Isaiah Scott; brothers and sisters, Charles (Lenora) Franklin of Detroit; Marion (Royal) Arnold; Belinda J. Hinton; and Raymond Hinton; special niece, Danielle Nicole Arnold; and longtime special friend, Cheryl Averiette.

The family will receive friends on Friday, April 22, 2016 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Rhoden Memorial Home, 1101 Palmetto Avenue, Akron. Homegoing service will be held Saturday, April 23, 2016 at 11:30 a.m. at Zion Temple Baptist Church, 515 Ardella Ave., Akron 44306, where friends may also call from 10:30 a.m. until time of service, Dr. Mark Tony Ward officiating. Condolences may be sent to 1093 Seventh Avenue, Akron, OH 44306 and 2913 Cocklebur Trail, Decatur, GA 30034.

To my Godsisters and Wendell/cousins and Family,

Seeding my deepest condolences to us all. Auntie Jeannie meant the world to me and the family. I have done a lot of first things with her in my life. She has always been there for me. I loved her so much. I am really going to miss her. Just know that I am always here for you all and we are going to stand strong like she would want us too!
Dedicated to my Auntie
Life is too short,
It's not enough,
but we must understand,
That if we live it in love and faith,
a road will be made,
For the day we pass away,
We can take it,
and wait at the end,
for those who once and always loved me,
I will meet.

Your beautiful eyes,
so small and slanted,
showed love,
showed laughter,
showed happiness,
showed sadness,
but we will remember you as the happy beautiful women you were,
The one who once cried for love,
The one who once laughed,
I love you my dear,
we will miss you,
but please wait,
we will meet once again,
In the kingdom of heaven,
where no pain we will feel.

Aunt Jeannie has transcended into the ranks of the righteous now in the presence of the Lord and among the Saints. I have so many priceless memories of her spending countless hours, days, and years at her home in East Akron. Aunt Jeannie had a smile that would light up the room and a sense of humor beyond compare. May Aunt Jeannie's angelic wings wrap around our hearts and lives keeping all strong when we feel weak and weary.

TO RAYMOND, BELINDA & MARI.........




Reaching Out
My heart is reaching out to you,
For what you're going through;
I'm thinking of you frequently
And praying for you, too.

If there's something I can do,
Anything at all,
Think of me thinking of you,
And don't hesitate to call

I can't comprehend just how sad you must feel
For the loss of someone you love.
This sorrowful time must still feel unreal
And you're looking for strength from above.

I hope, from my heart, that your pain will decrease,
That your spirit will gain strength again,
And I pray that your faith will create inner peace
And that God will send blessings--Amen.




Till then, if you need me to lighten your load,
I'm waiting to come to your aid.
Just call on me, and I'll walk down that road,
Until the dark times start to fade.




Deep condolences

An inspirational message to Myles, Peyton, Evin and Isaiah Scott ( Grandsons)

A guardian angel is what your grandmother (Nana) was meant to be
While smiling down from heaven as proud as can be
Just imagine all that she can see:
Watching you grow from boys to responsible, well-respected young men
Watching you accept life challenges with integrity and pride time and time again,
Watching you excel, achieve and succeed in this journey of life with every win
Cherish her memories and she will always be present in your hearts;
Sending you unconditional love and approval from heaven above
Reminding each of you of the bond shared between a grandmother and grandsons represents the greatest love
While our hearts are broken and we did not want her to leave
We pray for strength and understanding because God called for an angel and Nana had to go
She wanted to stay, but God told her no
She earned her wings as angels do
While she watches you all from heaven, she wants you to always strive to your best and nothing less,
And when you undoubtedly find yourselves at the crossroads of life
Please remind yourselves that you're just in a perfect spot
To learn of the wondrous resources of Our Heavenly Father, whose promise can fail you not.
He meets the trials of earthly life, comforts you from storms and strife, always place yourselves within his mighty arms
and he will keep you safe from harm.

We love you all
We are the shoulders to lean on and ears to listen.....
Godparents ( Auntie Wanda & Uncle Steve)

Monique & Tamika

You can only have one mother
Patient kind and true;
No other friend in all the world,
Will be the same to you.
When others forsake you,
Into your mother's arms , you could always return,
For all her loving kindness,
She asks nothing in return.
As you look upon her picture,
Sweet memories we recall,
Of a face so full of sunshine,
And a smile for one and all.
It is our prayer that the two of you will forever be gratefulThat you both were truly blessed to have born through her to love.
We ask Sweet Jesus to take this message,
To your dear mother up above;
Tell her how much her daughters will cherish her precious memories and that they will truly miss her,
And want to send her
their love.

Donnie Christian

At the rising of the sun and at its going down,
We remember them.
At the blowing of the wind and in the chill of Winter,
We remember them.
At the opening of buds and in the rebirth of Spring,
We remember them.
At the blueness of the skies and in the warmth of Summer,
We remember them.

At the rustling of leaves and the beauty of Autumn,
We remember them.
At the beginning of the year and when it ends,
We remember them.
As long as we live, they too will live;
for they are now a part of us, as we remember them.
When we are weary and in need of strength,
We remember them.
When we are lost and sick at heart,
We remember them.
When we have joys we yearn to share,
We remember them.
When we have decisions that are difficult to make,
We remember them.
When we have achievements that are based on theirs,
We remember them.
As long as we live, they too shall live,
for they are a part of us, as we remember them.

To The Gloria Jean (Hinton) Hart Family
Monique I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother, but take these words of prayer:

Im Still Here
I'm Still Here

Friend, please don't mourn for me,

I'm still here, though you don't see.

I'm right by your side each night and day,

And within your heart I long to stay.

My body is gone but I'm always near,

I'm everything you feel, see or hear.

My spirit is free, but I'll never depart,

As long as you keep me alive in your heart.

I'll never wander out of your sight.

I'm the brightest star on a summer night.

I'll never be beyond your reach.

I'm the warm moist sand when you're at the beach.

I'm the colorful leaves when fall comes around,

And the pure white snow that blankets the ground.

I'm the beautiful flowers of which you're so fond,

The clear cool water in a quiet pond.

I'm the first bright blossom you'll see in the spring,

The first warm raindrop that April will bring.

I'm the first ray of light when the sun starts to shine,

And you'll see that the face in the moon is mine.

When you start thinking there's no one to love you,

You can talk to me through the Lord above you.

I'll whisper my answer through the leaves on the trees,

And you'll feel my presence in the soft summer breeze.

I'm the hot salty tears that flow when you weep,

And the beautiful dreams that will come while you sleep.

I'm the smile you see on a baby's face.

Just look for me, my family and friends I'm everyplace!

Charles Small
