Roma Collene Hill died in comfort and peace on her 91st birthday, Saturday, June 8, 2024.
She was born in Maysville, Oklahoma, to Edith and Floyd Reed. She also lived in Purcell before moving to Oklahoma City as a teen, where she attended Capitol Hill High School and graduated Valedictorian of the Class of 1950.
Roma Collene Hill was married to Frankie Lester Hill for over 60 years, and is survived by 2 children, Linda Cheryl "Cheri" Leinneweber and her husband, Eugene, of Tuttle, Oklahoma; and Frankie Lynn Hill of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. She is also survived by grand-daughters Christina Leinneweber, Sarah Hill Rogalsky, and Anne Hill, and grandsons James Hill, Jonathan Hill, and Stephen Hill. Collene is survived by 11 great-grandchildren.
Collene cherished her time working 31 years at Newcastle High School, where she made many friends of students, parents, and faculty. She was devoted to her family and was the best grandmother – the perfect example of selfless love.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Frankie, 6 years prior, her beloved brother, Hubert "Hub" Reed (who died 11 days prior), her parents, and grandparents.
The family requests that memorial contributions be made to Westview Boy's Home in Hollis, Oklahoma, [P.O. Box 553, Hollis, OK 73550; (580) 688-9281; or online], in lieu of flowers.
James 1:27 - "Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world."

Collene was the secretary at Newcastle High School when I started working there, and she was always so friendly and helpful, and made me feel welcome. Fond memories!
My condolences to her family.

Collene and Frankie took my brother and myself to church for a few years. They treated us like family and we loved them dearly. She will be missed.

Colleen was my neighbor when I was a young girl but even after we moved she took care of me and my sisters as the high school secretary. She was always so kind and sweet. Prayers for her family.
With love and prayers Donna Black Chesnut
