Over the years, Hynes has questioned whether he would continue to act. However, he always found his way back to the entertainment. He told My Devotional Thoughts, "At a certain point in my life, I came to a crossroads and really wondered if this was what I wanted to do the rest of my life.

Hynes opened up about the tough loss and how he dedicated one scene in particular to his friend, Kathy, by changing a line of dialogue in her honor. He said, "For her and her family I changed a line in the film as my quiet way to pay respects and show my love for them. I don't normally share things of this importance in a forum like this. I prefer to keep those moments with the people it belongs to. But she watched these films."
