Please receive our condolences. Our neighborhood loved Mr. Hill. He will be missed. I do know that he has gone from this life, to everlasting life in heaven. He believed in our Lord Jesus. No more suffering and what an incredible good life Mr. Hill lived. Again, we will miss seeing him out for his daily walks. God bless your family.
Sorry for your loss. I did not personally know Bill or his father Huey, but have learned of them through my family research. Huey Hill and my grandfather Preston Ezekiel Hill (1912 to 1941) were brothers, with Huey being much older than my grandfather. Thank you for posting a picture of Bill. Would love to learn more about this side of the James and Emma Hill family history. Respectfully, Abe (abe.abe.abrams@gmail.com)
