In Loving Memory of Herbert Lee Hill, Jr. ("Red")
Herbert Lee Hill, Jr. was born on February 14, 1944, in Beaumont, Texas, to the union of Herbert Lee Hill, Sr. and Rose Mary Young. He was blessed with one sister, Joyce Charlot, of Beaumont, Texas. He peacefully departed this earthly life on July 7, 2026, at the age of 82.
Herbert was united in marriage to Ethel Hill, and together they built a life rooted in faith, love, family, and unwavering devotion. Their union was blessed with five children: Shedrick (Keisha) Francis, Eric Hill, Derrick (Koneka) Hill, Calvin (Tina) Hill, and Anthony (Yolanda) Hill. He was also the proud father of Carlies Lewis from a previous marriage.
A dedicated and hardworking man, Herbert faithfully provided for his family throughout his career as a truck driver for Coca-Cola and Dr Pepper. He spent many years on the road to ensure his loved ones had everything they needed. In addition to his career, Herbert owned and operated a lawn care business, which became one of his greatest sources of pride. Through his work, he served countless families and neighbors throughout the Beaumont community, building lasting friendships along the way.
A lifelong resident of Beaumont, Herbert deeply loved the city he called home. He was a devoted Christian whose quiet faith guided his daily life and influenced everyone who knew him. He also had a deep appreciation for music, finding joy in melodies that filled his heart and home.
Herbert was a kind, dependable, and gentle man who believed family was life's greatest blessing. He treasured every opportunity to gather with loved ones and taught by example the importance of faith, commitment, hard work, and being present for those he loved. His steady presence, warm smile, and generous spirit will be remembered by all whose lives he touched.
Herbert's memory will forever be cherished by his beloved sister, Joyce Charlot; his devoted wife, Ethel Hill; his five sons, Shedrick (Keisha) Francis, Eric Hill, Derrick (Koneka) Hill, Calvin (Tina) Hill, and Anthony (Yolanda) Hill; his daughter, Carlies Lewis; along with a loving host of grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, extended family members, and dear friends who will forever treasure his love, wisdom, and legacy.
Herbert's melody may have grown quiet, but the harmony he created through his faith, love, and family will continue to resonate for generations to come. His legacy lives on in every life he touched.
