On Friday, July 30, 2021, Mr. Daniel “Danny Boy" Hill entered into eternal rest at Southside Regional Medical Center, Petersburg Virginia. He was born in Dinwiddie, Virginia on March 22, 1958 and was the son of Milton and Louise Hill.
Daniel was educated in the Dinwiddie Public School system, graduating in the Class of 1976. Daniel was employed at Brown and Root for about 10 years and started at BFI which is now called Republic Services, where he was employed for 31 years.
