Member Jim Hinkley dies

It is with sadness that we announce the death of member Jim Hinkley. Jim was admired by many of us as a gracious and kind person who live an interesting and talented life. Among many things, he loved being a member of MGRS. We will miss him.

sgould said...: This is sad news indeed. Jim could touch people deeply after even the briefest encounter. One of my brothers and his wife traveled with Jim when the MGRS took the trip from Brunswick to Rockport. They both found Jim to be one of the warmest and most interesting persons they had ever met, and often asked about afterwards. If there is another side, I am certain Jim will bring that same warmth to countless others.; May 17, 2013 at 10:13 AM
John said...: Jim was a very good man, I liked him a lot. He had a good sense of humor and was a good story teller. I think he had a very good outlook and he really will be missed.; May 17, 2013 at 10:11 PM
