  • TERENCE CHARLES HYNES February 24, 1947 to January 15, 2020

     Here lies Terry Hynes A Simple Man Of Simple Rhymes. February 24, 1947 to January 15, 2020

    It's not often a person gets to write their own obituary, so being who I am, I cannot let this opportunity go past without at least contributing a few of my own thoughts as to what should be included here.

I can however, honestly state, that as an adult, I never purposely tried to harm or mistreat other people, but to always be fair and consider their position both in social or business situations. I was blessed very young in life to find and marry a woman that would stay with me and love me through all my ups and downs as well as provide me with three of the greatest children a man could wish for. Whom in turn would bless me with five fantastic grandchildren. What more can you want. I have also been blessed with having a large and caring extended family. Many of whom became close to me like brothers and sisters. Ahh, my brothers! Like most siblings growing up as children, the four of us would at times, argue, fight, and tease each other unmercifully. As the eldest, I'm sure I had the advantage most of the times. However, we gradually got to know each other as adults and, in most cases, developed a new respect for each other as grown men. Through many visits, holidays, and run-away fishing trips, we shared many adventures, laughs, and stories that brought us together as friends and brothers once more…

    Unfortunately, Terry passed suddenly without completing some of the tasks he wanted, including the rest of his thoughts to this obituary so let us jump in...
