Daniel Ray Hines, lovingly known by many names - Dad, Poppi, Danny, Uncle Dan, and most proudly, Mr. Handsome - passed away peacefully at home on July 10, 2025, surrounded by his wife and daughter.
Dan was born in Virginia Beach, VA, a place that remained the heart of his life even after spending some time on the west coast. His vibrant spirit, unmatched sense of humor, and deep love for his family and music left an unforgettable mark on everyone who knew him.
He is survived by the loves of his life - his devoted wife, Suzanne Hines, and his daughters: Molly Hines, Michele Osborn, and Laura Daigle (Neil). He was the proud grandfather of Anthony DeLeon, Brayden Osborn (Katie), Carleigh Osborn, Layla Daigle, and Lucy Daigle, and a joyful great-grandfather to Oaklen Osborn.
Dan also leaves behind his cherished siblings: Eunice Culbertson (Steve), John Hines, Sr. (Susan), Connie Cahoon (Roger) and countless nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents Garland, Sr. and Lillie Hines and brothers Garland Hines, Jr. (Leslie) and James "Jimmy" Hines, and he carried their memories with him always.
Music was the soundtrack of Dan's life. He played in multiple bands over the years, most notably the Hines Brothers Band. He also shared his gift as a worship leader at The Carpenter's House International, using his voice and spirit to inspire faith and connection to God.
Professionally, Dan wore many hats - from his early days at American Airlines, to owning and operating several businesses, and most recently, working with pride at Movement Mortgage. Whatever role he filled, Dan brought humor, heart, and hustle.
A celebration of Dan's life will be held on Saturday, July 19, 2025 at 11:00 a.m. Location is at Wave Church - SEABOARD Campus 2655 Seaboard Road, Virginia Beach, VA 23456. Flowers can be sent on Friday to the location. All who knew and loved him are welcome to attend, share stories, and honor the joy he brought into this world.
The family asks that you honor Dan by turning up your favorite song, singing it loud, and dancing like no one's watching - just as he would have wanted.
