Michael James Hill

June 23, 1969 — September 16, 2019

Michael James Hill, 50, departed this mortal life on September 16, 2019 surrounded by his loving family. He was born June 23, 1969 in Bellevue, Washington to Frank and Romae Earl Hill. He was the youngest of 4 siblings.
Mike graduated from Mountain Crest High school in 1987.
He worked at his father's business ,Castalite, and helped build a successful business for over 30 years.
He was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Mike met the love of his life Cassie Rizzuto Hill in 1994, they married on September 9, 1995 in Salt Lake City. They were blessed with three children Brooke, Harley, and Mason Hill.
Mike fought a valiant battle for five years with such strength and such courage, and he never let it beat him or consume him.
He always made sure he was up and going, out playing, and making memories with his family.
He brought such a zest to all of our lives with such adventures. He made everything alright when we were out on the rocks on one wheel or high speed full throttle through the dunes. You always knew you were ok when you were with him. He brought a sense of comfort in knowing he knew what to do and how to do it.
There was never a dull moment with Mike. He always had a story or a quick and witty joke or comment that always made you laugh or smile. Mike has many Buddies and always ready to help. He truly will be missed by all that were lucky enough to have known him.
He made the best out of any situation, whether it was awkward or sad. That is where he shined. He always said something funny or witty to change the mood. He had the most unique laugh that would light up a room. If there was any one who could give a jaw dropping story, it was Mike! His stories will never be forgotten. He was a legend!
He had such a great sense of humor that drew so many in and brought out the adventure or the young person inside of you. You would feel alive when he was around. As he said to all of us, “take me riding, hiking, snow biking, sand duning, rock climbing, whatever adventure there is. Live it and let me live it with you.”
Always and forever you will lead our way,
He is survived by his loving wife Cassie, their three children, Brooke, Harley, Mason, his parents, Frank and Romae Hill, brothers, Scott Hill, Steve (Holly)Hill, sister, Sandy(John) Roberts and his in-laws Rod and Gloria Kartchner.

We would like to give thanks to the nurses and doctors at the Cancer Specialists Team for making the most unbearable moments good moments.
