John Michael Hine

Mr. John Michael Hine, age 71, passed away peacefully on Friday, October 23, 2026, at Jackson Madison County Hospital. Born on August 11, 1955, John spent most of his earlier life living across the Northeast but settled in Tennessee later in life where he made Bells, Tennessee his home. 

Mr. Hine found joy in music. He enjoyed music so much he dedicated his time to hosting an online radio show where he could share his passion with others. He enjoyed the simple pleasures of life and the people who were part of his journey especially the community of Bells, Tennessee.

Mr. Hine is survived by his friends, Keith and Vickie Reynolds along with their daughters, Megan Kelly and Marcy Ronk, and their grandchildren, Jace Kelly, Griffin Ronk, and Larae Ronk. They are carrying out his wishes with a private graveside service which will be held at Walnut Hill Baptist Church Cemetery. Arrangements are entrusted to Lawrence- Sorensen Funeral Home.
