It is with deep sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of Mary Evely Priscilla Hill, a cherished member of her community and a devout servant of her faith, on September 15, 2024 at the age of 85. Born into a life of quiet humility, Priscilla dedicated herself to living in accordance with her deeply held religious beliefs, always serving with kindness, grace and unwavering faith. Known for her gentle nature, Priscilla found solace in the simple, sacred rhythms of daily life with her daughter close by. She embraced her religious practices with reverence, never seeking recognition but always offering her time and heart. Her soft-spoken wisdom, steady presence and commitment to her values. As a mother, Priscilla was the epitome of kindness, patience and unconditional love. She supported Robin in all aspects of her life, guiding her with patience and a heart full of compassion. Her quiet strength and nurturing spirit were a constant source of comfort and security and her legacy lives on in the loving memories that Robin carries forward with.

Though she grieved their loss deeply, she remained grounded in her faith, finding comfort in the belief of a reunion in the life to come. She is survived by her daughter Robin Ann Hill. Thoåugh she has left this earthly life, her memory will forever be cherished in the hearts of those who knew her. May her soul rest in eternal peace, and may her example of faith and humility continue to inspire us all.
