Dear Magdalena, Joe and Dana.

I was so saddened to hear of his passing. I felt quite at a loss when you, Magdalena, had come for a bitter-sweet short visit to tell me the other day. I always called him Mr. Hill out of respect – calling him Joe didn’t seem right as I’d known him since I was kid….some near 40 years. The last time I saw him he was in good spirits with laughter and a book nearby, even though he struggled to read. I will cherish that memory. He was a kind friend and neighbor to my mom. I wish you peace love and happy memories

Joe and Nancy, My thoughts and prayers are with you both and will be especially there on Monday. The last while has been quite a struggle for all of you. May Mr. Hill rest in peace and may memories of him bring you some comfort.

Dear Magdalena, Joe, Dana & family,

Your husband, father, and grandfather was an amazing, much respected, and loved man. He was considerate, caring, unselfish, and a gift to many of us. We wonder sometimes how our family could have made it through hard times without his kindness, consideration, and deep felt sincerity involving his support and patience over the last twenty five years. God bless you Joe. You will be missed more than words can say.

With Love,

Faye & Brad Marlow
