Obituary
Edith " Edie" Elizabeth Price Hill
May 9, 1932
October 1, 2022
Edith Elizabeth Price Hill (Edie) was 90 years old when she joined her husband, William L. Hill (Bill), in heaven on October 1, 2022. Edie is survived by her three children Debbie, Gregg (Debbie), and Tracy (Lori); four grandchildren Christine, Mitchell (Shelby), Matthew (Bailey), and Annabella; and great-grandson Riley.
She had many close and special friends, as well as her tortoise Miss Lily. Edie was predeceased by her husband Bill, her parents Samuel and Eula Price, siblings Mabel, Donald, Nathan, Willie, Tom, and Joe, and great-granddaughter, Avery.
Edie grew up in North Carolina, from very humble beginnings. She graduated from Graham High School (voted best dressed every year) and attended community college. Edie held many jobs including quality control for AT&T (aka Western Electric) and General Electric. However, her favorite “job” was when she opened her own daycare – giving so many children a loving and healthy beginning. After “retirement” she began her final career as a lunch lady at Spanish Springs High School where her grandsons went to school. Edie loved to travel, sew, garden, attend church, volunteer, do puzzles, play Shanghai, and spend time with her family and friends. We are all blessed and better for the time we had with her. She was the epitome of grace, kindness, compassion, caring, and strength. She will be missed by many.
Edie had a full life, but even at 90, she leaves us too soon.
Edie’s Funeral Service will be held on Sunday October 9, 2022, at 4:00 pm at the First Baptist Church of Sparks, 6255 Pyramid Highway, Sparks, NV. Her viewing will be held on Saturday October 8, 2022, from 11:00 am - 2:00 pm at Walton’s Funeral Home, 1745 Sullivan Lane, Sparks, NV.
