Teresa Y. Hinkson

Teresa Yvonne Hinkson, age 62, of Frederick, Maryland, died Thursday, December 26, 2024, at Kline Hospice House in Mt. Airy, Maryland, after her long battle with cancer. She was a loving wife to her wonderful husband, Terry Martindale, and dog mom to their beloved Joey. She was the daughter of the late Patrick and Louise Hinkson, born June 13, 1962, in Silver Spring, Maryland, and grew up in Laurel, Maryland. 

Teresa’s soft nature, and compassionate soul were reflected through her long career at Petersen’s Carpet and Flooring. She truly cared about each of her customers and always took the time to get to know them. She enjoyed the hustle and bustle of working a fast-paced job but never forgot to stop and enjoy the little things in life. Teresa’s joys in life were her family, and her love for God. The Lord’s light shined very brightly through her contagious smile, and quirky laugh. She had a passion for flowers, taking care of her garden, reading the Bible, and listening to her Christian music. She loved everything about the beach; the feeling of the sun on her face, the sound of the waves crashing, and the coolness of the water when it hit her toes. 

She never hesitated to reach out a helping hand to those in need and was always there to provide support for others. Her most memorable moments in life were spent with her loving family, and friends. 

She is survived by, and was the most amazing mother to, her twin daughters, Rebecca Myers, boyfriend Kevin Holmes, and Michelle Shores, husband Ryan Shores, and stepmother to Justin Graves and Marcie Gregory. She was the grandmother of her precious jewel, Presley June Shores. Teresa is also survived by her two sisters and one brother; Gina Taylor, husband Tim Taylor, and their children, Kevin, Casey and Baylee and sister Lora Arrington, husband Stephen Arrington, and their children, Joshua and Victoria and her brother, Christopher Kline, wife Erin Kline. She is also survived by her childhood best friend of almost 50 years, Carol Kaiser Coker, husband Brad Coker and their children, Melissa and Jamie.
