Marshall Edward “Ed” Hines

Marshall Edward “Ed” Hines, age 90, of Florence, passed away
peacefully on Friday, April 12, 2025, surrounded by his family.

Ed was a devout Christian, a U.S. Army veteran, and a member of the
Church of Christ. He was known for his gentle spirit, steadfast work
ethic, and the quiet strength that shaped his life. He lived out his faith
with humility and consistency, earning the respect and admiration of
all who knew him. His 46-year marriage to Jan was a true partnership
built on love, mutual respect, and shared values. The example they
set—individually and together—touched the lives of so many. To his
nieces, nephews, and the generations that followed, “Uncle Ed” was
more than family—he was a guiding presence, deeply loved and
admired.

He is survived by his wife, Jan Hines; son, Steve Hines; sister-in-law,
Janette Cobb; and a host of nieces and nephews who cherished him.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Tommy Lee and Eva Hines,
and his ten siblings.
