THE OBITUARY
Mr. Michael Hines was born at Kennestone Hospital in Marietta, Cobb County, Georgia on August 3, 1959 to the parentage of the late Leroy and Hazel (Smith) Hines.
His early education began at Hawthorne Elementary School in Smyrna, Georgia. In 1973, his family relocated to Roanoke, Alabama where he joined East Roanoke Pure Holiness Church of God and received his religious education as a youth.
He spent the remainder of his youth in Roanoke, where he grew up and and graduated from Handley High School with the Class of 1978. After high school, Michael attended Auburn University for one (1) year.
Michael was a gifted artist, and also was very skillful as a handyman, performing all kinds of odd jobs. So, while in Roanoke, he worked all over town, doing odd jobs until he relocated to LaGrange. These were his God-given talents. After relocating to LaGrange, Georgia, he worked in the Shipping and Receiving Department at Wal Mart until his health failed. Michael was a zealous fan of Auburn Football. Michael joined City Light Church, in LaGrange, (Pastor Mark Davenport), where he remained a member until his passing.
