Dr. Hines and Family,
It really saddened my heart to learn that my friend Warren"Polo" Hines got his wings. SU football games and parties will not be the same without him. I remember seeing him last Thanksgiving 2011 out and he was happy and laughing as he always did. We talked about Terrel and he picked up the phone and called him right then. Always connecting and pulling people together. He will/is missed. Praying for your family doing this difficult time. He is at Peace. RIP Polo, See you later.

I want to express my deepest sympathy to your family. I was just informed of Warren's (Polo) passing just the other day. I just saw him at SU's homecoming and he was full of energy as usual. He was always kind and energetic towards me. I got to know him in and around TT Allain back in the day and remained a good friend towards me since then. He will be sorely missed by many. He's in a better place now. My prayers are with you all.

Warren Hines AKA Polo. This brother will truly be missed. I only remember good times with Polo, I can't recall any bad times. Polo always had smile on his face and he tried to enjoy life to the fullest. I remember: Southern Lab football games, talent shows and dances in the gym, even the video that was broadcasted on television, NYSP summer program on the yard and eating at bizzy bee,swimming on the yard (Coach Hightower), and college looking out for one another, joking in between classes, parties!!! The list goes on of many great memories that come to mind when I think of Polo. To Dr. Hines and family and True friends of Polo, when you feel down ask God to replace your void with his word and your memories of Warren Antony Hines AKA Polo. From one prep to another, Polos and Tretorns!!!
Your in REVOLuTion!

My deepest condolences are extended to Warren "Polo" Hines' family and friends. I did not know Polo well, but on the evening of 12-30-12 my wife and I experienced and were the beneficiaries of an unsolicited random act of kindness procured by one Warren "Polo" Hines. When he saw me, he immediately shook my hand with an embrace as though we were family. From his personal kindness to my wife and me, I know that every nice thing that has been said about Polo is true. HE WAS A VERY NICE GUY. May God continue to bless those that knew or even met him.

Dr. Hines and Leah,
This one has been especially hard for me. Long before your family moved to Baton Rouge, I have memories of Tony at your home in Alexandria hanging at the pool. When you came to Baton Rouge that bond only grew. I'm so filled with sadness but remember his joy during our last encounter. He loved you both so much. We all loved him so much. He's in great hands. Dad and Cupcake were there to welcome him. Know that he's not alone and neither are you. I'm only a phone call away.

Hours turned into a life well lived. Never has someone so eclipsed the branding of an iconic fashion house. Polo brings to mind a golden age of my life, gone much too soon. When my sister read a sorority posting of Warren's passing, she asked me that night did I know him, I said that's Polo, she responded obviously that Soror was not of our Baton Rouge.
