Ike, age 76, passed peacefully at Providence Hospital of Anchorage, Alaska, in the company of his beloved family and friends. Born on March 9, 1949, in Long Beach, Calif., to George E. Hill Sr. and Marie N. Hill, Ike lived a long, fulfilling life, surrounded by a plethora of loved ones, including his wife, Frances "Fran" M. Hill, whom he adored greatly. Ike and Fran gave life and home to four adoring children – one daughter and three sons: Lannette M. Meeker, Isaac M. Hill Jr., Brandon L. Hill Sr. and David G. Hrbal Sr. Ike was also survived by two daughters, Aimee and Alexis. Altogether, their descendants blessed Ike and Fran with many beautiful grandchildren and, later on, great-grandchildren.
Ike was a dedicated man, hardworking father and loving uncle and grandfather. From 1968-1974, Ike served in the military during the Vietnam War, and he worked tirelessly until his retirement in February 2025. Ike found peace in being in the presence of his family and friends, and spending his days doing all that he loved. He deeply enjoyed music, old western films, thunderstorms, the Minnesota Vikings, firearms, assembling computers and his Faith, of which he spent many years practicing at St. Patrick's Catholic Church.
