Mom wanted people to know that she had repented and put her faith in Jesus Christ alone for the forgiveness of her sins at the age of 75 years old. (John 14:6) It is never too late, no matter how old or young you are. She was looking forward to seeing her Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus (2 Corinthians 5:8), and one of her most favorite Bible passages was Psalm 23.
Born December 22nd, 1948, in Stanly County, North Carolina. She was the daughter of the late Felton Jerome Hinson and Nellie Faye Talbert Hinson. She was a retired LPN with the Albemarle Correctional Institute.
