I am so very sorry for your loss. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Mrs Hill, Bobby, Darin
It’s with great sorrow I reach out to you today. When I think my Phoenix memories the Hill family comes to mind.
I think of ice cream stores, ping pong in the back yard (I never could beat Tanya), little dogs named Buffy (I hope that is right), base ball cards, Granny and a concrete wall between Baskin Robbins and your house.
I have though Tanya often over the years. We had a special relationship which I still hold deeply in my heart as I believe she did too. Thank you Tanya you are now in a better place.
I remember the first day I met Tanya at work (APS-PVNGS) in 1981. She was vibrant and always expressed herself in a very excited demeanor like an excited child anxious to share something with you. She was very pleasant and had a great laugh and smile. May the family find peace and solitude knowing Tanya lived a full life and she suffers no more. She will be missed by all whom had the pleasure of knowing her in all different aspects of her life!
