Obituary of Edward E. Hill

Edward E. Hill, of Denville, passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on Wednesday, June 20, 2018 at Compassionate Care Hospice in Dover. He was 83 years young.

Born in East Orange to the late Harry and Margaret Hill, he was raised in West Orange. He graduated from the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA in 1956 with a BA in Political Science. After returning home from College, he married his soulmate, Patricia Andrews. Together they relocated to Denville to begin their life and family together. After 44 years of hard work, dedication, and many accomplishments, he retired from MONY Securities Corp. as Senior Vice President - Compliance in New York in 1999. After retirement, he became even more involved at Presbyterian Church of Morris Plains, where he had been a member since 1970. He volunteered a lot of his time there and was Past Clerk of Sessions.
