SFC (Ret) Hubert Orace Hill

Hubert Orace Hill, 83, of Salem, AL died at his home on Wednesday, April 10, 2025, while under the care of Columbus Hospice with his daughter by his side.

Funeral Services will be held at 2:00 PM (EST) on Thursday, April 17, 2025, in the Chapel of Vance Brooks Funeral Home, with Chaplain Daniel Mitchell officiating. Internment with U. S. Army honors will be in Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, VA at a later date. The family will receive friends from 1:00 pm until the funeral hour on Thursday at the funeral home.

Mr. Hill was born May 23, 1941, in Cochran, GA son of the late Henry Edgar Hill, Jr and Jimmie Louise Reeves Boling. He retired from the U. S. Army after 20 years of committed service to our country as an SFC. After his military career, he became a successful entrepreneur.

We will remember him as a patriot who truly believed in God, Country and Family. He had a heart of gold and was always helping others. Family was his top priority, and he always made time for children, siblings, grands, cousins, and other relatives. Thank you for the solid foundation you have laid for us to build upon.

Mr. Hill was preceded in death by his parents, Edgar Hill, Jr. and Jimmie Boling and his grandmother who raised him, Lillian Reeves; one brother, Philip E. Carlisle.

Survivors include his daughter, Donna Monson (Paul) San Antonio, TX; brother, Bernard G. Carlisle, Jr. (Teresa): two grandchildren, Johnathon Monson and Anastasia Monson Dombrowski (John); niece, Jennifer Scott (Toney); and his first great-grandchild to arrive in August 2025.
