It is with heavy hearts that we share the passing of Olga Louise Hill (Wilhite), devoted wife of 65 years, a loving mother, cherished sister, and a dear friend. She was the heart of her family and the steady foundation for all who loved her. She poured herself into her husband and children with quiet strength and boundless love.
Married to the love of her life, Nicholas Leon Hill, she built a beautiful life centered on faith, laughter, and the joy of raising four children. She approached each day with grace, whether she was traveling with her husband, supporting her children and grandchildren as they grew, attending piano recitals, cheering from the sidelines, or simply being the listening ear everyone relied on.
Olga Louise Hill, age 85, of Birmingham, AL, passed away on June 19, 2025. She was born on November 8, 1939, in Cullman, Alabama, to Georgia and Hershel Wilhite.

Hill II (Amy); Sonja Hill Purvis (Dewey); and Craig Leith Hill (Christy). She was the proud grandmother of eight and great-grandchildren of five. She is also survived by her brother, Donald Wilhite (June); a brother-in law; sisters-in-law; nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, her older brother, Marion Wilhite, and her younger sister, Diane Lykins.
