Barbara Hillman Obituary

She moved to Arizona in 1958 where she later raised her family. She is preceded in death by her mother and 8 siblings. She is survived by her husband, Melbourne E. Hillman, her son, Daniel Hillman, her daughter, Donna Hillman Jarvis and her 3 beautiful grandsons, Brian Jarvis, Kyler Jarvis and Chase Jarvis. She devoted her life to God and had a heart of gold. Always a kind word and a gentle hand for others. She will be forever missed, for this world has truly lost an Angel of the Lord.

I remember your smile as I sat with you time after time, listening to you talk of the things that brought you happiness. I remember your poems and your drawings of roses that you enjoyed so much.I remember hearing you sing so softly in the next room. I remember trying to teach you to swim on a hot summer day-You were fearless. I will miss your stories of when you first met me at age 5. For you, I will stop to smell the roses and cherish their beauty and think of you.
