Earnestine Garner Hill was born February 29, 1968 to John Day Garner and Ruby Lee Garner in Simpson County, MS. She was the Fifth child of six children Junior, Peggy, Hulon, Margaret, Earnestine, and Johnny. She was very close to her brothers and sisters growing up and after they were old. She was one of a kind sister, the kind of sister you were blessed to have. She had a sweet spirit, a kind heart, an encouragement in the Lord and a giver. She was a wonderful daughter. She was a good child to daddy and mama always listened to them. Her mama was extra special to her. She was her baby girl. She loved her so much. Her daddy could just look at her and she would say daddy how high you want me to jump. She was a child that never had to get on to that was just the way she was. He was so proud of her and loved her so much. She didn’t leave home until she was about 24 years old. She had two daughters April and Britteny; her children were everything to Earnestine. She loved her babies so very much. She spoiled them and did everything for them. They never had to worry about anything because she took very good care of them. She was the best mama ever. She met her husband Don Hill in 2011. They were married September 25,2015. She loved her husband with all of her heart. He meant the world to her. She took very good care of him and when she got sick and could not walk anymore in 2022 he returned that care to her. He stayed right by her side being her caregiver. She deeply appreciated him for loving her like that not many people will just stop their life to take care of someone that can’t get up. She loved her husband with all her heart. She has two grandsons Antoney and Trystan. Oh she was so very proud of them she would always say they don’t know how much they mean to me they were the blessing in her life. She was able to enjoy them. They stayed with her alot till she became sick. She wanted to be there for them and she loved them more than words will ever be able to tell them. Earnestine will be missed but we know that if anyone made it to Jesus it was her. She loved the Lord above all things. She was always the one to tell you about Jesus and oh what a blessing that is to know she was a blessing to all that knew her.
