Rhoda Guess Hinson, 67, died at her home in Columbia, SC, on July 10, 2024.
Rhoda was born September 6, 1956, in Kingstree, SC, a daughter of the late James Advil Guess Sr. and Rhoda Mell Brown Guess. Rhoda had a memorable childhood growing up in Lane, SC, with family and friends and those memories extend to the family beach house, “The Guess House”, in Pawley’s Island, SC, where the close family still gathers. She was a 1974 graduate of Kingstree High School and received a Bachelor’s degree from the University of South Carolina with a minor in French. Rhoda was a retired employee of the State of South Carolina. She loved genealogy, especially Williamsburg County history, even becoming a member of the SC Historical Society. She was an avid Gamecock fan, following all sports closely. Rhoda was a lifelong member of Union Presbyterian Church in Salters, SC. Her love for the Lord was apparent to all who knew her. The loss of her dynamic personality will leave a huge void in the lives of her family.
She is survived by her daughter, Hannah Hayes Mims (Ryan) and grandchildren Ryan Charles and Lydia Hayes; sisters, Vicky Guess McDonald (Steve) and Rebecca Guess McGill (Robert) and sister-in-law Cheryl Guess. Rhoda is also survived by her beloved 5 nieces, a nephew and 13 great nieces and nephews.
In addition to her parents, Rhoda was preceded in death by a sister, Catherine Guess Horton and a brother, James Advil “Jimmy” Guess, Jr.
A celebration of Rhoda’s life will be held at 11 AM, Tuesday, July 16, 2024, at Union Presbyterian Church, 4501 M.L. King, Jr. Hwy., Salters, SC 29590. Rhoda’s family will greet friends and family following the service in the Martin Building at the church.

So sorry for your Sister’s passing! Our condolences to your entire family. I feel for you, as my younger Sister, Kris, passed away at a way to young age, like yours! Your memories of happy times shared, will help you all through this! God Bless!
I met Rhoda in 1979(my first roommate when I came to Columbia SC)We reconnected later. She will be so missed. I will always love her as a sister.
I don’t have the words to tell you how sorry I am. My best memory will always be your wedding Hanna ! She was so happy and such a proud mother of the bride!! She danced the night away. Love you !
Rhoda was such a delightful person. She had a quick smile and infectious personality which she shared with everyone around her. To know her was to love her. She will be missed. My sincere condolences to all her family.
Thoughts and prayers go out to the family
Rest easy my Gamecock friend!
I am so sorry to hear of Rhoda’s passing. We hadn’t seen each other in years but I will always remember our childhood together. She was such a wonderful friend.
My sincere condolences to the family. Ms. Rhoda was such a character and a joy to be around. I know she will be missed by many. I’m grateful our paths crossed.
Words are not adequate to express the sadness over the loss of Rhoda. A beautiful, energetic, forgiving soul that fiercely loved her family will be missed by everyone that knew her. The memory of Rhoda that I will carry close… hand on hip “well nothing we can do about that right now, just pray some more.” Rest easy my friend.
Condolences to her family and us friends. She will be missed.
She was a dear lady.
I was deeply saddened to hear of cousin Rhoda’s passing. I have so many fond memories of growing up with her. I extend my sincerest sympathy and affection.
