“Vickie was born in Detroit, Michigan, and moved to Strawberry Plains when she was about two years old. She was one of a kind; selfless, generous, and always ready to help anyone in need. She loved fiercely and lived with an open heart.

A gifted hairdresser for 57 years, Vickie retired from JCPenney and continued to serve her clients as a freelance stylist. She truly lit up every room she entered, and nothing delighted her loved ones more than hearing, “Grandma Vickie is here.” She never met a stranger, greeting everyone with warmth, compassion, and a giving spirit. Her quick wit kept those around her laughing.

Her greatest joy was being “Grandma Vickie.” Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were the center of her world, and she loved them with her whole heart.

Vickie was a member of Holston Baptist Church. Her legacy is one of kindness, service, and joy, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.”

“We have lost a good man. Matthew David Hinkin succumbed to his 16-year battle with Parkinsons Disease, March 16th, 2026, at the age of 62 in Knoxville, Tennessee. He was a good and faithful servant leader, dedicated to his family and the Knoxville community.
Matt was born September 23,1963 at Commanche County Hospital, Lawton, Oklahoma, the sixth child of Paul Edwin Hinkin and Mabel Agnes (Wesson) Hinkin. He quickly started his traveling career in this Army family moving to British Army post Rhiendahlen, West Germany at age 5 months with later stops in New York City, Salina, Kansas, Great Falls, Montana and finally Manhattan, Kansas in 1974. Matt graduated from Manhattan High School (MHS) in 1981. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Radio and Television Journalism from Kansas State University in 1985 and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Meteorology at The University of Kansas in 1989.
Matt always had musical interests singing in various choirs at MHS and Kansas State as well as playing the sousaphone in the marching band at both schools. For many years, he was an active member of the acapella vocal group Streetside. After college, he toured coast to coast for a year with the Christian singing group, The Continental Singers. Matt was an excellent junior golfer, an interest he kept throughout the years. His professional broadcasting career started with Manhattan High and K-State sports for KSDB, the student radio station at Kansas State and then he went on to television news and sports at KSNF TV, Joplin, Missouri. Finding his true love in meteorology, he went to KU while doing weekend weather for KSNT 27 in Topeka. His real start in weather came when he accepted a job at WATE TV6 in Knoxville, Tennessee in 1990. 32 years later, he retired in 2022. At WATE he became East Tennessee’s most beloved weatherman. He had several other interests including the Knoxville Zoo, the Emerald Youth Project, Grace Baptist Church, the PJ The Parkinson's Foundation and visiting many local schools to talk about weather.
Matt married Deborah Annette Jack on August 15, 1992, in Knoxville. They welcomed their son Joshua David Hinkin in 2000. Debbie was lost in a car accident in November 2020.”
