Ronald Hinton Metropolitan Funeral

Tuesday evening, May 23, 2023, at 7:05 p. m. God sent His guiding angel for our beloved brother, brother-in-law, and uncle Mr. Ronald Hinton who slipped away to be with our Lord Jesus Christ. We all loved him deeply and will miss his sense of humor, love of people, love of life and caring heart. He was the son of the late Herman William Hinton, Sr. and Glenna Maxine Hinton.

Ronald was born in Moyock, North Carolina on May 22, 1955. At an early age, Ronald accepted the Lord Jesus Christ, baptized at Willow Grove Baptist Church, and later joined First Baptist Church Crestwood. He was preceded in death by his brother Donald Hinton and sister-in-law Younde Hinton.

He had formal education in the city of Chesapeake, Virginia, graduated from Great Bridge High School in 1973. He enlisted in the United States Army in 1975 and served as an Administrative Specialist at the Armed Forces Staff College, Norfolk, Virginia. He also served in Headquarters, Second Battalion, Fourth Brigade, Eighth Division, Portsmouth, Virginia. 

Following his military service, Ronald was employed as a shipyard welder in Norfolk, Virginia at the Norfolk Naval Base. Later, he enrolled in and completed CDL Class A Driver training and was employed by several transportation firms. In 2023, he concluded his career as a professional commercial driver with the Covenant Logistics Group travelling across the continental United States.

Cherishing his memories will be his siblings Diane H. Walker (Herman), Paige Hinton-Mason (David); Herman Hinton, Jr. (Yolanda), Aunts Doris Cook and Rosa Morgan, Uncle Clarence Sivels, eight nieces and nephews, Shannold, Tiffany, Brian, Christopher, Crystal; Kimberly, Nicole and Ashley; and a host of cousins, great nieces and nephews, and friends.
