Mary Hines, 79, of Lizton, Indiana, departed this life at 11:25 AM, Thursday, June 4, 2020 at Avon Health and Rehab in Avon, Indiana after a long struggle with Alzheimer’s. She was born December 23, 1940 in Indianapolis, Indiana to the late Kenneth and Virginia Holmes.
Mary graduated from Shortridge High School in 1958 and began her career as bookkeeper and worked in Insurance and Transportation. After her divorce, she worked at Chris’ Lizton Market where she was “Mary at the store” for a generation of kids. She was a devoted grandmother who never missed a birthday, ballgame, concert or show choir competition even if she had to travel to Washington to do so. She was an extremely loving, caring and honest person who always had room for one more. She was a fierce defender of the underdog and always told her boys “You can do can do anything you can put your mind to” and meant it.
She is survived by her two sons, Jeff (Kim) Hines and Greg (Jamie) Hines; four grandchildren, Ashtin, Trevor, Olivia and Elliot; Sister Patty (Gary) Pate; Brother, Bob Holmes, brother-in-law, Steve Bigham; Nieces, Mandy Pate and Jessica Eads; Nephews, Mark Miller, Brad Pate, Josh Bigham, Randy Holmes and Bobby Holmes.
