Betty Jane Hill passed away suddenly but peacefully in her sleep Friday, November 21, 2008, at the age of 68.

Betty was born August 9, 1940, in Liberty Hill, Texas, and moved to Monroe, Louisiana a few years after her marriage to Charles Nolan “Sonny” Hill where 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.
