Jerry Ray Hill died in his home in Front Royal on Thursday, June 7, 2012.
Mr. Hill was born on March 18, 1939 to Marian Pauline and Ralph W. Hill in Sedan, Kansas. Jerry's father eventually moved the family to Colorado where Jerry spent the remainder of his childhood and young adulthood. He graduated from the University of Colorado Boulder.
Jerry served in the United States Air Force. He was stationed in Germany and Japan.

In 1994 both Mary and Jerry retired from the Federal Government and returned to Front Royal, Mary Kathryn's birthplace. But their dream of a long and active retirement was shattered when Mary died unexpectedly in July 1996.
