Obituary: Linda G. Hill
KS_Newton -- Linda G. Hill, 54, of Newton, died Monday
(March 11, 2013) at her home.
Linda Gayle Hill was born on June 3, 1958, in Oklahoma City.
Her parents are Harold T. Perciful (deceased) and Edwina Alvarez and Arturo
Alvarez Jr. (stepfather).
She is survived by her son, Daniel Hill; her daughter, Emily
Maker; and her granddaughter, Allison Maker; her brothers, Harold
Elias-Perciful and Arturo Alvarez III; her sisters, Marie Lopez and Rosita
Alvarez; and four nephews and seven nieces.
In her youth, she enjoyed art, ceramics, and singing in
church and school choirs. She worked as a church secretary for Hillcrest
Christian Church in Oklahoma City, an office administrator for the Disciples
Foundation of Oklahoma and thoroughly enjoyed her work the last five years with
the Kansas Christian Home, as director of development.
She loved her granddaughter, her one and only, Allison. She
enjoyed painting and developed her arts and craft talents. She enjoyed
gardening, traveling and being a good friend.
She was a jewel in life for many friends, the example of
loving dignity. She was kind to all she met and never judged another. She was a
Christian with a well-developed faith. God’s love and support was her strength
in her time of trial. God’s grace was delivered to her through the hands of her
many friends, especially those here at Kansas Christian Center.
Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the
time to come. She opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is
on her tongue. Proverbs 31:25-26
