Hugh Luttrell Hill, loving husband, father, grandfather, born July 20, 1926, passed away peacefully, Friday October 24, 2014 surrounded by his family.

Hugh is one of nine children born to the late Jesse Franklin and Annie Maude McBride Hill.

Hugh is preceded in death by his daughter Brenda, six sisters and one brother.

Hugh is survived by his wife of 57 years, Jean Ritter Hill; son Greg Murphy (Debbie); daughters, Leesa Younkin (Brian), Denise Goodman (Steve), Jessica McKimmins (Kevin); grandchildren, Melissa Allen (Art), Alex Younkin (Holly), Katie Murphy, Cody McKimmins (Maddie), Caitlyn Younkin; great grandchildren Tiffany and Maggie Allen; brother, Lindy, many nieces, nephews and grand-dogs, Riley and Jack.

Hugh was a decorated veteran of World War II and Korea where he received the Purple Heart. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge and VFW. Hugh devoted his life to taking care of his family.

At his request, there will be no services, his wish to donate his body to science.

Arrangements were made by Ohio Cremation & Memorial Society. Donations can be made to the VA of Columbus in Hugh's honor.

A very special thank you to his niece Becky Allen for her sweet serenade. Dad has moved on to where everything is peaches and creme. He will be so missed.

The following is a poem written by my uncle Hugh at the end of his life story that is too long to put on FAG.

I am going to end this now, by including a little poem he composed to leave to all of his loved ones.

IF I GO FIRST AND YOU REMAIN
DON'T EVER FEEL ALONE
JUST SIMPLY DIAL MY NEW HOME
ON YOUR CORDLESS TELEPHONE

IF MY LINE IS BUSY OR I'M NOT AT HOME
BE ASSURED THAT ALL IS FINE
JUST LIFT YOUR EYES TO THE SKIES
AND YOU'LL SEE ME SITTING ON CLOUD NINE

DO NOT GRIEVE OR WASTE YOUR TIME
THINKING WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN
KEEP DOING THE THINGS YOU'VE ALWAYS DONE
NO MATTER WHAT OR WHEN

SPEND MORE TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS
GIVE GENEROUSLY OF YOUR LOVE
TAKE SOME TIME TO PREPARE YOURSELF
FOR YOUR JOURNEY UP ABOVE

HAVE NO FEAR OF FACING DEATH
THE JOURNEY IS BRIGHT AND CLEAR
AND ALL THE THINGS AWAITING YOU
ARE FILLED WITH LOVE AND JOY AND CHEER

GOD WILL SHOW YOU WHAT TO DO
HE'LL BE WITH YOU ALL THE WAY
AND I'LL BE THERE TO TAKE YOUR HAND
ON THAT BEAUTIFUL AND GLORIOUS DAY

WE'LL BE TOGETHER AGAIN AT LAST
AS WE WERE ALWAYS MEANT TO BE
SIDE BY SIDE WE'LL CLIMB THE STAIRS
ALWAYS AND FOREVER--YOU AND ME
