Harold Walter Hinton

Harold Walter Hinton, age 76, died on May 8, 2017.  Born January 27, 1941 in Atlanta, Georgia, he was a son of the late Reginald H Hinton and Ethel Beatrice Ertzberger.  Harold served in the US Navy with an honorable discharge and was a strong supporter for the men and women who served our country.   Earlier in his career, he was President and Co-owner of DiMarco’s Outdoor Furniture Manufacturing Company and also had his own paint contracting firm for many years.  Most recently, he worked at Walmart in Mesa, AZ. 
 
Harold never knew a stranger.  He will be remembered by friends and family as loving, thoughtful, generous, and funny - he could best be described as charismatic.   He was widely recognized for his selfless support to countless individuals in need of help over the 40 years he was a part of the recovery community.  He was most recognized in the Atlanta area where he leaves a strong legacy of recovery to those who had the good fortune of knowing him. 
 
For those who knew Harold, his greatest loves were his children.  Survivors include: daughters Lisa Hinton Nahal (Mike) and Kim Hinton Wade (Jack), sons Connor Harold Hinton and Kyle Joseph Hinton; granddaughter Nicole Nahal; great-granddaughter Gabriella Zayas; brother Denny Hinton (Eddie Ruth) and sister Patricia Moser Hawkins (Charles); many nieces and nephews and extended family.
 
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by two brothers and a sister, Arnold W Moser, James B Moser, and Sonya F Moser.
