Carol A. Sienkiewicz Hinko

Carol A. (Sienkiewicz) Hinko, 68, of Jackson died gracefully at Centrastate Medical Center on Monday, December 1, 2014. Born in Bayonne, she lived in Clinton, Michigan and Manalapan before moving to Jackson 14 years ago.

Carol was a graduate of Wilfred Academy of Hair and Beauty Culture in Newark. She loved her career choice as a hairdresser and worked for various salons before opening her own, named RSVP in Manalapan, which she owned and operated for over 15 years.

Carol was a very giving person with a huge heart who would help anyone at any time and never said no. She absolutely loved being a grandmother and adored her family. She is known for her sense of humor, her love of crafts, her doll collection and her love of the holidays – especially Christmas.

Carol is predeceased by her beloved parents Adam Edward and Clara Agnes (Mackiewicz) Sienkiewicz and her devoted husband of 48 years Darryl John Hinko (2013). She is survived by her loving children Melissa Jane (and Rodney) Guile, Jennifer Lynn (and Peter) Hagre and Darryl John Hinko, Jr.; her cherished grandchildren Ciara Nicole Guile and Nathaniel James Guile; her dear sister Sr. Mary Magdelyn; and her adored grandpuppies Holden Hinko Hagre and Dugen Guile. Also surviving are several nieces and nephews.

Friends and relatives are invited to attend visitation on Friday, December 5, 2014 from 6pm to 9pm at Michael Hegarty Funeral Home 3377 Hwy 9 Old Bridge, NJ 08857. Cremation services will be private.
