We regretfully and sorrowfully announce the transition of our beloved and dedicated Pastor, Rev. Dr. Mack T. Hines. Pastor Hines served faithfully and tirelessly as our pastor for 40 years. While our sorrow is great we bow in humble submission to God who knows best. We stand alongside our First Lady Mrs. Gladys Hines and her family as we navigate during this very difficult time.

Reverend Doctor Mack Torris Hines, Jr. of Florence, SC died Thursday, according to Smith Funeral Home in Florence, SC.

Rev. Dr. Hines was well-known throughout the Pee Dee and the state of South Carolina for his efforts to help people and improve the state’s overall quality of life.

Many are deeply saddened by his death.

For nearly 40 years, Hines pastored Mullins’ St. Paul Missionary Baptist Church.

During his last anniversary celebration in December, Hines expressed gratitude to the church for its dedication and support to him.

Parishioners lauded Hines as a great leader, pastor, and friend.

Morris College awarded Hines an Honorary Doctor of Divinity Degree in recognition of his great leadership in the state of South Carolina, and he is also a member of the Morris College Hall of Fame.

He worked as an educator in Florence School District 1 for 12 years.

Following 12 years of service in the South Carolina House of Representatives for District 59, he received the Order of the Palmetto from then-Governor Mark Sanford in 2006.

Dr. Hines was married to the former Gladys Jackson from Darlington.

They have 3 sons, Mack III, Michael, and Gregory, and 3 grandkids.

Smith Funeral Home of Florence, LLC will make an announcement about the arrangements later.
