Joe Scheines, FBBC Awards Breakfast, 1/24/2009
Joseph Scheines, 82, of Hilton Head Island, died Feb. 8, 2010.
Whether you called him Joe, Dad, or Poppa, he was known for his curmudgeonly exterior, his quick wit, and his incredibly huge heart.
He was a 30 year veteran of Kurt Salmon Associates as head of its communications activities, in a job he created himself.
He will be missed by many, but mostly those who survive him, his children, Daniel Scheines and Lisa Scheines (Peter) Horton and his grandchildren, Alexandra and Jess Horton and Thalia and Dorothy Scheines.
Funeral Services will be held Wednesday, February 10 at 10 AM at Congregation Beth Yam, 4501 Meeting Street, Hilton Head. Interment to follow at Six Oaks Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Planned Parenthood. The Island Funeral Home and Crematory is in charge of arrangements.
