Gigi
Gigi Hines
d. July 22, 2013
Gigi Hines, 76), a well-known Coast musician, died Monday, July 22, in Alabama.
She is survived by her children, Vanessa Melvin of Hampton, GA and Dianne Shelton (Andre) of Woodbridge, VA; five grandchildren, Kyron Melvin-Powell, Jailyn Melvin, Rashad Sloan, Alaya Shelton, and Joshua Shelton; and her siblings, Frank Hines, Jr., Hattie Goseberry, John Hines, Joe Hines, Ed Hines, and Cela Thompson.
Gigi will be lovingly remembered by her family, church and many friends. She will also be remembered for her delightful laughter, along with her dedication to her family.
Gigi put joy into the hearts of all who heard her sing. The day she died was the day of her resurrection when she rejoined the God who guided her life. Gigi was a light to those who knew her and a strong ally to those who needed her. She was an entertainer, a teacher, a compassionate care giver, and a lady who loved life and laughter. Her beloved guitar was a constant companion, together they were ever ready to spread the joy of song.
Gigi lived in Jackson and Gulfport most of her adult life sharing her musical gifts of blues, gospel, country and class. She could make her guitar speak for itself. She also shared her music in schools, churches, restaurants, nightclubs, and spontaneous gatherings. For the past twelve years, Gigi was on the staff at The Nourishing Place, using her gifts to enrich and encourage elementary school children, nursing home residents, and her church family.
A happy, musical Celebration of Her Life will be held Saturday, July 27, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. at RIEMANN FAMILY FUNERAL HOME, 11280 Three Rivers Road, Gulfport. All are welcome to come and share the love!
For those who would like Gigi's legacy to live on, donations may be made to the Gigi Hines Fund c/o The Nourishing Place, PO Box 7785, Gulfport, MS 39506. The Gigi Hines' Fund will be used to give assistance through scholarships and music lessons to young people who want to follow in the musical steps of Gigi.
Gigi was an Alleluia person and all who love her send her back to God with prayers of praise.
