IN MEMORIAM - Thomas Hinds 1961-2003


    Tom, originally from Alexandria, Virginia, logged over 1,000 hours of flight time as a pilot working for various government and nonprofit agencies. Most recently he was employed by Environmental Aviation Services, where he conducted right whale and manatee surveys. Tom was also a former stock broker and member of the National Guard. He was an instructor at two Fernandina Beach flying schools and a member of the Civil Air Patrol Fernandina Beach Squadron. Tom's love of life and love for flying were immediately apparent in his confident, enthusiastic manner. He lived in Fernandina Beach with his wife and their family of pets. Donations in Tom's name can be made to the First Coast Humane Society.
