Obituary For Jennifer Lynn Hill

Jennifer Lynn Hill, 63, of Whitewright, TX, passed away on November 22, 2025 in McKinney, TX.

A memorial service will be held at 11:00 AM, Saturday December 13 at Christ United Church in Blue Ridge, TX with Pastor Jason Petersen and Brother Dan Gurley officiating. Arrangements are by Dannel Funeral Home.

Jennifer Lynn Hill was born in Jackson, Mississippi to Donald and Barbara Hook on February 14, 1962. She married Steven Patrick Hill on June 5, 2004 in Trenton, TX. She worked as an Administrative Assistant at Grayson College for 14 years. One thing about Jennifer, is she loved her grandkids and bragged about them constantly. She was fierce and independent.

Jennifer is preceded in death by her parents Donald and Barbara Hook, sister Melanie Hook, and her husband Steve Hill. Jennifer is survived by her daughter Katie Porter and husband Brandon, brothers Doug Hook, Tom Hook and lifelong partner Victoria, and Jonathan Hook and wife Shannon, grandchildren Brooklynn, Kyler, and Brynlee Porter, nephews Tyler and wife Bethany, Zachary Hook and Owen Hook, and nieces Evelyn and Elizabeth Hook.

In addition to flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the American Heart Association in my mother’s name. (www.heart.org)

    No matter what was going on in Jennifer's life, she ALWAYS had a smile. I loved seeing her and talking with her whenever she could join us for Girl Scouts with Katie or PTA. The enjoyment of FB stalking her and always seeing that super contagious smile, will forever be unparalleled. My eternal thanks to her for being such a sweetheart when my world was spinning out. Prayers of comfort and *hugs* go out for all of her family and friends. It's a temporary "loss" until we meet her on the other side.

    Jennifer will be missed by our Health Science department. She was always willing to help us with anything we needed. She talked about her grandbabies all the time as well as her daughter.

    We were buddies from the moment we met, and I loved any time we got to spend together. We both were married to the love of our lives, who happened to be cousins. I will miss you dearly my friend!

    Jennifer and her late husband Steve were great friends to me. Steve loved her immensly, as he talked to me lots about her. We had many mini adventures together, and will miss her and her never ending energy, fierce spirit and toughness. God bless Katie, the children and remainder of the family. Blessings for comfort and peace.
