Cecilia Hill

Cecilia Murguia Aceves de Hill, 81, passed away on Thursday, April 11, 2024. A visitation will be held at Dutton Funeral Home on Tuesday, April 16, at 5:00 P.M. with a funeral service on Wednesday, April 17, at 2:00 P.M. at the Dutton Funeral Home Chapel.

Cecilia was born on August 7, 1942, to Maximina Murguia in La Loma, Jalisco, Mexico. She married Kendell J. Hill on April 21, 1967, in Decatur, TX. They would’ve been happily married for 57 years come April 21st of 2024. Cecilia loved to cook and was always happy to feed someone. No one ever left her home hungry. She also enjoyed reading and anything involving arts and crafts and was exceptionally creative. She loved staying informed on current events and was truly proud to be an American… so much so that on January 6, 2021, when she saw the incident at the capitol, she wept because she believed it to be a sacred place. She officially gained her U.S. citizenship on October 25, 1996. Family was a huge aspect of her life and spending quality time with them was very important to her. In addition, she was an amazing storyteller and could recount memories with vivid detail. Cecilia had an endless well of encouragement and wisdom that she often shared with her loved ones. She was a devoted Christian and was baptized in the Church of Christ of Iowa Park.

Cecilia is survived by her husband, Kendell J. Hill, her children, Cheryl House, Sylvia Murphy and husband Tom, Kendell Hill II and wife Susan, Maxine Bowser, and Clarence F. Hill and girlfriend Nicole Schroeder, her grandchildren, Deanna House, Cally Reed, Bobby Huddleston and wife Sarah, Tischia Halencak and husband Jerry, Kayla Whitaker and husband Austin, Trevor Lindsay and fiancé Erin Stone, Gina Meissner and husband Steven, Amy Groves and husband Briton, Geoffrey Hill and wife Mary Margaret, Lauryn Cruickshank and husband Scott, Terry Wilson, and Cody Wilson. She is also survived by many great grandchildren and friends.

She is preceded in death by her mother, Maximina Murguia, her daughter Danea Huddleston, her son Michael Hill, and her great grandson Kohen Meissner.

The family would like to thank Solaris Hospice Care for the compassion and attention shown to Cecilia and all who visited and prayed for her.
