Mrs. Rebecca Ann "Becki" Hines, 67, of Waycross died Monday morning at her residence after an extended illness.
She was born in Waycross to the late Raymond Warnell Willingham and Maudine Taylor Willingham.
She was a 1968 graduate of Waycross High School and a 1972 graduate of the University of Georgia. She was a retired educator who taught in the public school system in Macon, Georgia, before returning home and teaching at the Southwood School and gifted for the Ware County School System.
She was a member of First United Methodist Church of Waycross and a sustaining member of the Waycross Service League. Mrs. Hines enjoyed staying in touch with her friends and classmates and was active and instrumental in planning class reunions for her Waycross High School graduating class.
She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother who loved nothing more than being able to spend time with her grandchildren. She will forever be remembered for her positive, caring, selfless attitude.
She always spoke kind words to and about others, never complained about the difficulties with her health she continuously faced, and always stayed positive for the family and friends around her.
She is survived by her husband, Harris Hines of Waycross,
two children
Trey Hines of Blackshear,
Taylor Hines and his wife Loni of Blackshear,
three grandchildren,
Will Hines, Ben Hines, Addison Hines,
