Tribute to William C Hinkle by David M Beske #RIP

Today's post is in honor of my late brother-in-law, William "Bill" Hinkle. Bill passed away on June 6, 2013
Poem by David M Beske (read as part of Bill's eulogy)
To my friend William Clyde Hinkle He had a very special way Of brightening up your darkest day Gentle and kind Yet firm and strong

A superstar person I can’t believe that you’re gone Working with you Indeed was a pleasure Seven years as my foreman You were more like a mentor
I truly will miss you Wow what a great friend Someone I could talk too Again and again But now that you’ve left us Far far behind The Lord must have a plan You were one of a kind We’ll keep you close In our hearts my dear friend Until I see you in heaven Take Care The End
Sincerely, David M. Beske
Cherry Hinkle, Bill's widow, is an author and ufologist well-known for her extensive research. She and Bill spent many hours researching and visiting sites. The couple lived in the Las Vegas area and the desert was often cruel to plants, but Bill was famous for bringing them back from the brink. After his death, a simple willow stick included in a spray of flowers at his funeral sprouted a green sprig.
