Melvin Hill Obituary

In Loving Memory Of Melvin T. "Pete" Hill, I see the countless Christmas trees around the world below with tiny lights, like Heaven's starts, reflecting on the snow. The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away the tear for I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear but the sounds of music can't compare with the Christmas choir up here. I have no words to tell you, the joy their voices bring, for it is beyond description, to hear the angels sing. I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart but I am not so far away, we really aren't apart. So be happy for me, dear ones, you know I hold you dear. And be glad that I'm spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. I sent you each a special gift, from my heavenly home above. I sent you each a memory of my undying love. After all, love is a gift more precious than pure gold. It was always most important in the stories Jesus told. Please love and keep each other, as my Father said to do, For i can't count the blessing or love he has for each of you. So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear. Remember, I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year. Love, The Family

I have so many memories of my uncle and appreciate him for being the model husband, father, grandfather, brother, son, uncle... I love you uncle Pete. I pray daily for your beautiful wife, and my aunt. I cannot imagine the pain she feels to have had such a wonderful life partner and now you are only with us in spirit cheering us on. Your girls are all beautiful and doing well. Thank you for all you gave while here with us!
