Joshua Keith Hines

Joshua Keith Hines, age 40, of Clinton, Oklahoma, was born June 8, 1985, in Clinton to Marvin Hines and Shannon (Phillips) Hines, and passed away Friday, December 12, 2025.

Josh spent his early childhood in Clinton before moving to Northwest Arkansas, where he attended school in Rogers, Arkansas. Growing up, he was active and adventurous, enjoying football, running cross country, and performing BMX bike tricks alongside his brother and friends. He was also naturally gifted in drawing and music, talents that reflected his creativity and free spirit.

As an adult, Josh found his greatest joy in spending time with his wife, children, and family. He enjoyed working on cars, fishing, and keeping a home full of dogs that he deeply adored. One of his favorite ways to unwind was sitting beside a nightly campfire with his wife, Summer, or settling in to watch movies together. Josh never met a stranger and was known for his generous heart—always willing to give the shirt off his back, or anything else he had, to someone in need. His family and friends will forever remember his unique, infectious laugh, affectionately known as “the Josh.”

Josh married the love of his life, Summer Graham, on November 15, 2012, in Bentonville, Arkansas. Their life together was filled with love, laughter, and family.

He was preceded in death by his father, Marvin Hines; and his grandparents, Larry Hines, Lucian Twins Sr., and Jimmy Phillips.

Those left to cherish his memory include his mother, Shannon Robertson of Pace, Florida; his wife, Summer Hines of the home in Arkansas; his grandmother, Viola Hines of Clinton; his children, Reilly Tuggle, Seth Hines, and Judah Hines, all of Arkansas; his siblings, Matt Hines and Caleb Robertson; one grandchild; along with many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends.

A wake service will be held from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. on Monday, December 22, 2025, at the ERC Building in Clinton. Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Tuesday, December 23, 2025, also at the ERC Building, officiated by Gerald Panana. Burial will follow in the Clinton Cemetery.
