Betty Jane Hill passed away suddenly but peacefully in her sleep Friday,

Betty was born August 9, 1940, in Liberty Hill, Texas, and moved to Monroe,

she has resided for the past 50 years. Betty worked as a teacher for NLU and 
later for the Monroe City School System at Neville and Wossman for 30 plus 
years. She also worked for the State Department of Education as a Hearing Law 
Officer before retiring in 1998.

Betty was a devoted member of College Place Baptist Church for 50 years, 
teaching the adult women's Sunday School class for the majority of those 
years. Betty will be remembered for her love and devotion to her family and

her Lord & Savior Jesus Christ in her children, grandchildren, and an untold 
number of friends and family.

and sister.

Gatesville, TX; and 3 sisters, Ann McCloskey, Billie JoAnn Amidon and her 
husband Bud of Bertram, TX, and Adarene Wilson and her husband Joe of Killeen,
