ANDREW CECIL HINES was born June 4, 1954, in Jacksonville, Florida to Andrew Daniels and Bertha Lee Gilmore. He departed this life on September 19, 2011 after a well fought battle with cancer.
Andrew attended Andrew Jackson Sr. high school and received his GED in 1973. He continued his education at Lakeland College in Sheboygan, Wisconsin where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree. He furthered his education at Troy State University where he received his Master of Education degree.
He accepted Christ as his savior at an early age at Tabernacle Institutional Baptist church, Jacksonville, Florida. He was ordained as a Deacon at the Community Baptist, Jessup Maryland. Ordained again at Greater New Zion Baptist Church in Manhiem, Germany and again at Antioch Baptist Church, Augusta Georgia. He united with the Oakey Grove Baptist church, Augusta in 2010
He was known to his family as "Cecil" and affectionately as "Bud" by his wife Ruby. He was a Christian man and Christ was the head of his life. He was a family man he loved and cherished his children and grandchildren and loved spending time with them. He served 20 years in the U. S. Army reaching the rank of Master Sergeant and received numerous awards and citations to include the Meritorious Service Medal.
He is survived by his loving wife: Ruby Hines; 3 daughters Nigelle Hines (Michael), Andrea Hines (Jimmy), N'yota Hines; 2 brothers Frank, Robert; 4 sisters Betty, Rosa, Valeria, Berdette; 6 grandchildren; 3 brother in-law Arthur, Jerry, Lonnie; 3 sister in-laws Sherileen, Lori, Isa and a host of relatives and friends.
God looked around his garden Andfound an empty place,
He then looked down upon the earth And saw your tiredface.
He put his arms around you And lifted you to rest.
God's garden must be beautiful He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering He knew you were in pain.
He knew that you would never Get well on earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough And the hills were hard to climb. So he closed your weary eyelids And whispered, `Peace bethine'. It broke our hearts to lose you But you didn't go alone, For part of us went with you The day God called you home.
