William Riley Hill Services Saturday

Services for William Riley Hill were conducted in the Assembly of God Church at 2 p.m. Saturday with Reverend W. P. McCaskey, Pastor officiating.

Burial was in the Kiowa Cemetery.

William Riley Hill was born on December 28, 1861 (in State of Georgia) and died at his home in Hammon, Wednesday, April 13, 1955.

He moved to Texas when 18 years of age; later was married to Ada Turner September 7, 1892. To this union were born seven children; four preceded him in death.

Survivors are his wife, Mrs. W. R. Hill, one son H. M. Hill (Jim), Manitou Springs, Colorado; two daughters, Ruth Sutton, Kansas City, Missouri; Viola Nath, Pasadena, California; also 14 grandchildren; several nieces and nephews, other relatives and a host of friends to mourn his passing at the age of 93 years, 3 months and 16 days. He had been in poor health for several months, but very few times failed to attend church services of his faith at the Assembly of God Church in Hammon of which he had been faithful for many years.

The tender care of his wife was a great solace and comfort in these last years. He is loved and will be missed by all who knew him.
