Through his Bible studies and calling on members and nonmembers, he ministered to the needs of others. After expanding the physical church and the spiritual life of the congregation, Rev. Hill was called to serve troubled churches in Pennsylvania. After which, he and his wife, Judithann returned to Boise to retire. They made their last home at The Terraces. Rev. Hill received loving care by the Terraces Skilled Nursing and St. Luke's Hospice team as he succumbed to a lung disease.

He leaves behind his loving wife and thoughtful grandson, Ashton. Robert was preceded in death by an only son, Aaron Whitacre McSween Hill.

Bob and Judithann were wonderful neighbors. Always friendly and welcoming, interested and kind to all of us. Bob's love for Judithann, Aaron, and Ashton was so evident. His pride and joy in Ashton was tremendous. Each time we ran into one another, he would share stories about Ashton. His love and delight in his grandson could not have been greater. His devotion to his family and friends was a living thing. Bob will be missed. God bless
