Our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Lillian Joyce Wellington Hill, was born on January 22, 1934 in Watertown, South Dakota. She was raised mostly in St. Paul, Minn. and Spokane, Wash. On April 16, 2014 at 11:05 a.m. in Charleston, God called her home.

She was the daughter of the late Murl Arthur Wellington, who died in 1948, her mother Goldie Lillian Graves Wellington Thomas and step-father, Glen Leroy Thomas, who loved her as his own, both died in 1985. She was also preceded in death by her brother, Jack Raymond Wellington Thomas (1978); grandparents, William C. Graves and Inga Underland Graves, whom she loved very much.

Joyce retired from CAMC Healthcare Financial. She had also worked many years in the St. Francis billing department, as well as St. Joseph Hospital in Indianapolis, Ind. She enjoyed reading, movies, swimming, bowling and cooking. She especially loved her special grand-dogs, Sam, Cokie and Bella, but most of all she loved her family. She was of the Lutheran faith.

She is survived by her 3 daughters, Linda Greenlee (Terry) , Deborah Cook (Kenneth), and Pamela Hill; grandchildren, Shannon Kinder (Timothy), Tonya Ebert (Paul), Lindsay Westerfield (Bobby), Matthew and Elizabeth Smart; two great-grandsons, Keaton Atchley and Maxwell Ebert; step-grandchildren, Brian, Tara, Lyndsi, Amanda, Jessica and their children; step-great-grandson, Skylar; a very special aunt, Daisy Graves Miller and her family; several nieces, nephews and cousins. We will miss you Mom and shall never forget.
