Garland Hines, Jr.

Garland Hines, Jr. age 57, of Rose Hill left this earthly life much too soon on Thursday, April 24, 2025.

He was born on February 20, 1968, in Pender County to Brenda Batts Hines of Wallace and the late Garland Hines, Sr.

Jr., as he was affectionately called, was the owner and operator of Johnny’s Body Shop in Wallace.  During the many years working at Johnny’s Body Shop, Jr. acquired many customers that became his friends. He was a very dedicated, hard worker, who made a wonderful life for he and his wife.

Jr. is survived, in addition to his mother,  by his loving wife of 16 years, Beverly Lanier Hines of the home; his children, Christopher Shane Hines and wife Charlie Beth, Justin Hines, Hannah Hines Lanier and husband Ladarrius, and Kylee Raynor; grandchildren Delaney Raynor, Addison Hines, Charlotte Hines, Camden Hines, Walker Hines, Jayden Hines, Jaxon Lanier, Jordyn Lanier, Jakob Lanier, Jeslie Lanier and Jenley Lanier;  sisters Donna Benton and husband Tony, Susan Savage  and husband Jamie, Marcie Hines and Sheila Hines; his best friend and canine companion, Winnie;  numerous nieces, nephews, extended family and friends that loved Jr. dearly.

Jr. was a devoted husband and caring daddy, granddaddy, son, brother, and uncle. He was a simple man who enjoyed the simplest things in life, but his greatest joy was family.  Jr. adored his wife; she was his rock, and he was hers.  He was a good daddy who provided for them and loved them.  Jr. was a great fan of Donald Trump, he was not ashamed to let you know it.  He enjoyed deer hunting, sitting by a fire listening to music, relaxing in “his building,” spending time with his wife at their 2nd home at the beach, dipping and drinking a beer and spending time with the family.  Jr. considered his friends and coworkers a part of his family.  Jr. was a very talented body man.  He worked hard to please his customers and always did his best for his customers.  With a big heart, Jr. would give the shirt off his back to anyone who needed it.  He was a caring, and compassionate man to everyone, including strangers.  Most of all, he loved his grandchildren.  They were the apple of his eyes, and he enjoyed every minute he spent with them.  Jr’s family, friends and community have a huge void in their hearts today.  He will surely be missed and never forgotten.
