Henry Tino Jr.

He is survived by his wife, Patricia Tino of Augusta, NJ; his son, Daniel Tino of Sparta, NJ; his two grandchildren, Isabella and Austin Tino of Warwick, NY; his sister, Janet George of Lake Hopatcong, NJ; and his brother, Richard Tino of Murrells Inlet, SC.

Henry was born on October 9, 1944 to Henry Tino, Sr. and Frances Geraci Tino in Newark, NJ. He graduated from West Essex High School in 1962 and then went on to get his degree in Cosmetology at the American Academy of Health and Beauty. Henry served proudly in the Army National Guard for 6 years.

Henry had a number of careers including owning his own beauty salon, being a golf-pro/instructor and teacher/leader in the field of addiction and recovery. He created and ran the “In Him Recovery Program” at Christian Faith Fellowship Church for 10 years. He had a huge heart for those struggling with addictions and mental health issues and dedicated his life to help those in need. Whether he was working the food pantry supporting rehab placements or sponsoring someone from home, he not only touched the lives of so many, he has changed their lives forever.

Henry was immersed in the Christian Community. He was a dedicated member of the United Chaplain International Worldwide Outreach, Inc. and of Christian Faith Fellowship Church. Henry had a strong belief and faith in Jesus Christ our Lord God and would share the good news of the gospel wherever he went whether near or far. He made a number of mission trips to Africa where he initiated and completed the building of a church and installing a clean drinking water well for those in Zimbabwe and the surrounding areas of Africa.

Henry enjoyed fishing, bowling, kayaking, chopping wood, working in the yard, rescuing dogs, and spending quiet time at home with his wife and family.

Henry found his soul mate, Patricia, and they were married in 1986. They just celebrated their 35th anniversary this April. They had the privilege of raising Daniel together. Henry will be dearly missed by so many who knew him, especially his wife, son and grandchildren. Their lives will never be the same.
