Paula Hill

Paula J. Hill June 5, 1959 - January 19, 2024

Today was great and so much fun! 

Tomorrow is another one. 

Oh wait, it isn't! For I have died.

 But don't be sad, and please don't cry.

 Life was good, most days were bright. 

My time on earth was oh, just right! 

Born Paula J. Hill and thus I remained Born in Hicksville, Ohio - No joke, that it's name!

 A degree in education brought me to Beardstown 

Only five years at BCA but at the church I stuck around 

Active in church, played the keys

 Worked with the kids - I tried, God, to please. 

Went to the Daycare in '89 

LOVED my job - life was fine! 

Touched by so many while there all those days. 

Who taught who? It's hard to say.

No husband around, no children perse

 But I never lacked love on any day. 

I had plenty of kids between the church and daycare 

Thanks so much to the parents who were willing to share! 

Life was great and so much fun 

With Heaven, there's another one.
