John Hill Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 26, 2023.
Hill In true John fashion, our beloved John left this world unexpectedly on the 24th of April 2023.

John will always be remembered for his wonderful sense of humor, his quick wit, his love of music and poetry, his Thanksgiving turkey costume and his Little Billy imitation.

Although a current Dallas resident, John was a native Houstonian. He attended Second Baptist School and Lamar High School prior to graduating from San Marcos Baptist Academy. He went to Baylor University, where he pledged Kappa Alpha fraternity and earned his BBA in 1995.

First in Dallas, and then in Colorado Springs, John had a long career in the health insurance industry where his compassionate and giving personality served him well.

Preceded in death by his father, Mike Hill and his uncle Dennis Hill, John is survived by his mother, Joyce Hill West and her husband Bob along with Bob's children, his twin sister Ashley Hill Welling and her husband Judd, his stepmother Marji Hill and her children, numerous cousins and countless friends. He will be sorely missed by the aforementioned.

A small, private gathering for the immediate family and close friends to celebrate John's life and legacy will be held at a future date.

I just learned of this. Taken away far too soon. I am saddened and send my condolences to his family and friends. I worked alongside John in Colorado Springs - and we definitely shared a few laughs. His smile and personality I remember and always will. Peace and strength to all who knew him. Rest in peace John.

I did not know John Michael personally but I know Ashley. When I discovered John was of The Order, and my brethren, I knew the world had lost a great man of integrity. However, this same world is very blessed to have Ashley- a strong, beautiful, and great woman in her own right, a rose to whom I send my deepest sympathy, condolences, and love. I care, and you are in my prayers. Dieu et les dames.

I enjoyed some years with John when we were younger and more agile. His curiosity always made for good conversation and thoughtful comments. John was one of the first REAL LISTENERS I ever encountered. John would listen and ask questions that proves his listening ability and interest in who anyone he was with truly was.
God Bless

John was a dear friend and is a dear soul. He deserved every bit of goodness that came his way in this life. It was an adventure and an honor to be his friend.
He is brilliant and free.

Although we went our separate ways after high school, we were in the same homeroom for four years at Lamar, and I always will remember how kind he was to me. I was that awkward kid trying to find my place and he always talked to me and made me smile. I´ll never forget his smile. Condolences to the family.

Ashley and Joyce -

I am grateful for my friendship with John at Lamar High School. He turned me on to great music B-52s, Pink Floyd, and laughing at Lake Wobegon. Every time I swim I remember John and Mike encouraging and teaching me the proper technique. And they somehow somehow convinced me to participate in a triathlon! May you remember his joy and laughter!
