Juanita “Skip” Hills

Juanita Hills memorial pending

Juanita “Skip” Hills, a Davis resident since 1951, died on May 16, at Sutter
Davis Hospital.  She was 79.

The longtime community activist and homemaker was born in San Bernardino and
grew up in San Francisco.

She married Jack Hills in 1943 and worked at the Green’s Eye Hospital in San
Francisco during World War II.  After the war, the couple moved to Bakersfield,
Citrus Heights, then to Davis.

She was widely known as a “can do” woman, participating in a large number of
community organizations.  She worked for several years for Dryden’s Home
furnishings and the Bob Day Pharmacy.

An avid gardener and home remodeler, she nearly doubled the floor space of her
Oeste Manor home and decorated the outside with roses.  Many Davis residents
will remember her as an enthusiastic and graceful folk and square dancer.

Hills was a “mom” to exchange student Christina Mercado, and a foster mother to
Douglas Barker.  Her travels abroad made many friends in Chile, Aregentina
(sic), England and New Zealand.
