I am grateful for healing and forgiveness. Until we see each other again. Rest in peace, Mr. Hill. I love you with all my heart. Mrs. Hill
I will never forget all the holidays i spent at there house. I to me it was uncle Duane and aunt Terry. he always was a silly fun person at all the get togethers. I know life on earth will be painful for his family and friends. He loved the LORD and is in paradise. and all those who love the LORD will be with him again. I am praying for Gods comfort for those still on earth.

Julianna CrespoI remember our family road trip out to Wisconsin when I was maybe 6 or 7. Grandpa Alex pulled out his accordian, and you and dad and some other uncles sang and played along. It was a moment of laughter and joy that I saw on my dad's face and yours. I'll hold on to that moment and feeling forever and remember you and our family this way.
