November 9, 2020
Alan Hill, age 81, of Lincoln, Nebraska, passed away Monday morning, November 9, 2020 surrounded by his family at his home. Alan was born in Nebraska and attended Nebraska Wesleyan University in Lincoln. He was a pilot and flying instructor in his early years taking his first solo flight May 19, 1958 in a J3 Piper Cub. Later he worked at State Farm until retirement.
In his spare time, he enjoyed model train collecting and sharing them with his grandchildren. He was also an avid builder and flyer of RC airplanes and enjoyed flying them with his sons. Alan was a member of St. Mark's United Methodist Church.
Alan is survived by his loving wife of 59 years, Shirley (Grover); along with two sons; Scott (Amy) and Greg (Jennifer), and two grandchildren, Garrett and Isabella, and many loving relatives.
A family graveside service and burial for Alan will be held at a later date at Robb Cemetery near Lexington, Ne. In lieu of flowers, memorials sent to the family will be donated to local charities. To email condolences please visit Aspen Mortuary's website at www.aspenaftercare.com.

We are so sad to hear of Alan's passing and are praying for your family's comfort during such a sad time. I know that Alan, as a fellow Lutheran, is with Jesus in a much better place. I have so many fond memories of Alan and Shirley (and Scott and Greg) growing up... they are like an uncle and aunt to me as they were such good friends of my parents. I will miss Alan's ready smile and laugh. He was always interested in what was going on in my life. I know my Dad will miss his Sky Knights flying buddy. We will all miss Alan so much.

So very sorry for the loss of Al. A kind man. Enjoyed time working with him at State Farm. He was my first Supervisor there. Seeing him around town everyone and then brought back many fun memories. God bless your family.

So sorry to hear of Al's passing, he was my supervisor in the late 70's/early 80's when I worked in Fire Company Records before I moved to Ad Services in 1982. I got to see him when he came to my retirement back in 2014. I started at State Farm in 73 right out of High School so I knew Al for many years. He was a super nice guy! My deepest sympathies!
