Death of Marylin J. Hill

Marylin J. Hill passed away Nov. 28, 2021. She was born Jan. 10, 1934, in Kalamazoo, Michigan, to Clare and Edna Schilling. During her childhood she lived in Kalamazoo and Battle Creek and graduated from Battle Creek Academy the spring of 1953.

While attending Emmanuel Missionary College, she met Kendall Hill. They married on Aug. 18, 1957. While Kendall pursued his coursework, Marylin taught at the Village SDA Church School. After her kids were grown up, she worked as a secretary at both Village and Ruth Murdoch Elementary Schools. Marylin was very happy and fulfilled working in schools for faculty and student needs.

As a member of the Village SDA Church, she was active in kids’ Sabbath School and arranged flowers for the church altar. She also served as assistant treasurer for a number of years when Kendall was treasurer.

Throughout her life she provided a listening ear, prayer and “counsel” to many women seeking help in their personal relationships. In the years of raising her children, she pursued the role of homemaker with enthusiasm by developing a safe haven for the neighbor children to play in the back yard and house. She loved her backyard flower and vegetable gardens.

Marylin is survived by her husband, Kendall; daughters, Merita (Doug) Ross of Longwood, Florida, and Julie Hill of Berrien Springs; sisters-in-law, Judy (Bruce) Zimmerman of Berrien Springs and Deb (Rick) Burlingame of St. Joseph; brother-in-law, Charles Fortney of Lincoln, Nebraska; nephew, Marty (Michelle) Fortney of Lincoln; grandchildren, Lanny Ross of Longwood, Florida, Douglas (Olivia) Ross of Atlanta, Georgia, Austin Frambach of Berrien Springs.
