Michael Eugene Hines was born in Canyon, Texas on September 7th, 1953 and passed away at his home in Round Rock, Texas on March 9th, 2019. He will be celebrated at his church home of Georgetown Church of Christ on Wednesday, March 13th at 2:00 p.m.
Mike was preceded in death by his parents Janney Bee and Keith Hines of Canyon as well as his sister Sondra Hines King of DeKalb, Illinois.
He is survived by his three kids: Michael Ashton Hines and his wife Karen and their two kids Luke and Allie of Carrolton; Matthew Aaron Hines and his wife Kristen and their daughter June of Thornton, Colorado; Meagan Ann Hines-Miksch and her husband Dustin and their daughter Brooklyn of Austin, his brother and wife Steve and Barbara Hines of Albuquerque, New Mexico, several nieces and nephews and last, but certainly not least, his faithful wife Angela of almost 41 years who was by his side until the moment he went to be with Our Lord.
Depending on when you knew Mike you may know him as a firefighter, a lobbyist, the State Director for the Commission on Fire Protection, or as the owner of a multitude of businesses ranging from construction to blinds and from political signs to real estate. Despite the job title he was using at the time you met, we all undoubtedly knew the same guy. He was a dad who always showed up, a friend who would drop anything to lend a hand, and a husband who constantly tried to deliver on a promise. He loved being PawPaw, talking about cars, playing Sudoku, pecan pie, Whataburger, the fire service, solving problems, serving the Church and laughing with friends and family.
But the tie that bonded all these together was that he was a dreamer. A man with a million ideas, and two million ways to bring them to life. Someone who always wondered "Why doesn't that exist?", "Do you know how much money that could make?", and always with the attitude of "How hard could it be?".
He didn't go to college, but he could teach a graduate course on how to figure things out. How to matter. How to make a difference. How to dream. How to make people happy to have known you and broken-hearted to see you go. He will always be loved and will forever be missed.
