Kathleen Hill Obituary
Kathleen 'Kathy' Hill went home to be with the Lord after a short illness on October 7th, 2022. She was an incredibly special lady. Born to Harry and Edith Sehring on March 6th, 1939 in Brooklyn, NY., she graduated from Bishop MacDonald High School in Brooklyn, NY. After graduating high school, she met and married the love of her life, Tyler Hill a Navy Sailor from Springfield, MA while he was stationed at the Brooklyn Navy yard. They married in 1960 and had five sons. In 1973, the family moved to Brookfield, CT, in 2005 Kathy and Tyler retired in Spring Hill, FL.
Over her life, Kathy wore many hats. She was a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, published author/writer/poet, Justice of the Peace, President of the Wellington Republicans Club, singer/rapper, clown, high school mascot, Tupperware lady, school lunch lady, world traveler, and follower of Jesus Christ. She loved her friends and family, and telling people about Jesus whenever the opportunity presented itself. Kathy was faithful to use the gifts that the Lord gave her to show others love and to honor Him.
There are so many words to describe Kathy; vibrant, loving, generous, fearless, and loyal to name a few but Kathy was so much more too. She was always funniest person in the room. She put smiles on faces from prisons, to churches, to schools, to hospitals all over the world. She made fast friends everywhere she went and was a treasure to everyone that knew her. She loved singing and dancing as well as doting over all of her kids and grandkids. She lived a very full and accomplished life.
She is survived by her husband of 62 years, Tyler Hill, her sister and brother in law, Jeanne and Don Leonard of Lakewood Ranch, FL, her five sons and wives, Greg and Cheryl of Purcellville VA, Steve and Cam of Apollo Beach FL, Terence and Paula of Virginia Beach VA, T.J. and Andrew both from Spring Hill, and her seven grandchildren George, Emily, Henry, Jack, Summer, Avery, and Reign.
A Celebration of Life will be on October 29th, at Life Church at 18924 County Line Rd, Spring Hill FL. 34610. Door Open at 10 and the service will begin at 11am. In lieu of flowers, donations could be made to the American Heart Association.

She was always so exuberant and cheerful, never seemed to forget a name. I knew her only through the Rep. Club, but that small contact was enough to convince me that she was truly one of a kind. Will always miss her delightful hats. She was a treasure to her family and all who knew her.

Tyler; we are so sorry to hear of the loss of your very dear special beloved Kathy; and to all the boys and extended family, we send to you a bushel full of adjectives describing the most extraordinary mother/mom. You are all truly blessed to carry with you endless, happy, fun, loving, treasured memories.
Kathy was a very dear sister in the Lord. Our church had a Secret Pal program and one year Kathy picked my name.
Throughout the year she held me up in never ending prayers, positive encouragement and love. That´s who she was!!
I received a very special Secret Pal Christmas gift from her that she had handmade; it was a cross-stitched tissue box that looked like a Christmas House with our last name also cross stitched on it! Every year I have put it out at Christmas time and from that Christmas in the 90´s to now
the Christmas House tissue box has had a reserved place in our house and in my heart.
Were thankful for Sister Kathy and Sister "Boobala" for depositing an exceptional high-octane spirited life into our girls lives, Elisabeth and Caitlin , ours and so many others.
May her spirit live on in all of you.
May you all walk hand-in-hand with the Lord as He heals all your broken hearts. We send our condolences with love, thoughts, and prayers to the entire Hill family.
Love, Dolly & Skip Santo

Kathy was the President of the Wellington Republican Club when I became a resident of the Wellington. She was passionate about politics and expressed to me her sadness when she had to move out of our community and retire from the position. Over the years she still managed to attend a number of political events and most recently I was able to chat with her for a bit. She remained committed to her beliefs and quizzed me on the status of the club. She is the classic example of the American Citizen that added greatly to her community. (Current President of the Wellington Republican Club)

Kathy was apart of my Life Church Family . She always had a smile and a hug! I called her the Bling Bling Lady because of her beautiful caps!
She will be missed!
Praying for comfort, strength, and peace for her Family!

I will never forget this wonderful lady and friend. All the laughs, tears, stories, jokes, campaigns, prayer times and so much more. Heaven's gain is our loss but we will be reunited some day. Kathy is in the presence of her Lord and Savior, Jesus.

I remember Kathy best as Sister Bubbela at Rock Church in the 1980s. Most recently here in Spring Hill at a few lunches together. Will surely miss her smiling face.

Mrs. Hill made my time at BHS so much more memorable, and especially my time as a BHS cheerleader watching her at every game. She cheered louder than all of us combined and when not at football her positive personality made every kid feel like they were special. May we all live to leave the type of impression in this world that she did. My condolences to her family who I know must be missing her so much right now.

Mrs. Hill will be remembered by many of us who attended Brookfield High, as a consistent beam of positive energy that was needed so often as we navigated the turbulence of our teenage years.
Thoughts to TJ and the rest of the Hill family.
