    Hill family,

    I’m not sure what to say, except that my heart grieves with yours. Ken was a tremendous father and grandfather with a warm, smiling face with a big heart to back it up. I am supporting you all with prayer and send my love. What a gift to have known Mr. Hill and to celebrate his life here with us.
