                      Thursday, September 17, 2009

  Mr. CHILDERS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the life of 
Marjorie Elizabeth Hines on the occasion of her 90th birthday. Marjorie 
Elizabeth Hines was born on September 27, 1919 in Hickory Valley, 
Tennessee to Benjamin Tamlin & Mary Raines Lake. She would become the 
eldest of the farm family's seven children.
   Marjorie studied at Lambuth College in Jackson, Tennessee and became 
an elementary school teacher. In 1943 she married Curtis W. Hines, a 
soldier from the Hopewell Community of Benton County, Mississippi. 
After his return from the war they began to farm land which had been in 
the Hines family for generations. Mr. Hines later became Chancery Clerk 
of Benton County. Mrs. Hines was his invaluable helpmate.
   Mr. & Mrs. Hines reared two children, Beth Hines Davis of Iuka and 
Frank Lesley Hines of Hopewell. They also have six grandchildren and 
three great grandchildren.
   Mrs. Hines is known for her charm, grace, beautiful smile and 
dedication to family and fellow man. She prepared marvelous meals for 
family, friends and strangers. I ask my colleagues to join me in paying 
tribute to Mrs. Marjorie Hines on her 90th birthday.
