On Saturday, October 17, our sweet Noelle Charity Hill suffered a seizure, and despite the very best medical care, she passed away. At just 12 years old, Noelle was brave, resilient, sweet, and truly our angel on earth.

Noelle is survived by her loving parents, Jake and Kelsie Hill, and her sisters, Sadie and Hazel Hill.

Noelle was born with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, also known as 4p-, an extremely rare genetic condition. Throughout her life, Noelle faced countless medical challenges. She was deaf and blind, non-verbal, non-mobile and had many many surgeries. Her family and medical team fought for her and loved her fiercely for 12 years to give Noelle the best care and attention possible. Noelle led a valiant and special life and God gave her the most special people surrounding her to care for her throughout her life.

Everyone that knew Noelle knew she had a special presence. We called her our angel, our pumpkin, and bubbie and everyone surrounding her and who got to be in her orbit was just as special. Noelle was our angel on earth and is now our angel in heaven.

We are creating this GoFundMe to help support the Hill family with funeral expenses during this heartbreaking time. We hope to ease some of their financial burden so they can focus on grieving, supporting one another, and honoring our sweet Noelle.

Noelle loved spending time at the park, especially on the swing. To honor her memory, we plan to install a bench in her name, and to add more benches in the area, quiet places where people can rest their feet and relax a little. Funds beyond the funeral and the first bench will go toward additional benches at other local parks that Noelle enjoyed visiting.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out, offered support, and surrounded the Hill family with love. We are incredibly grateful for the community that has loved Noelle and her family.
