Obituary

Daniel Jarvis Hill Jr. of Gainesville, GA passed away August 1, 2019 at his home surrounded by family
and friends. Danny, as he was known died from complications of Multiple Systems Atrophy (MSA). He
was 66 years old, born on December 28, 1952 in Chestertown, MD.

Danny grew up in Barclay, MD, the son of Daniel J. Hill Sr. and Frances A. Hill. He attended Queen
Anne's County High School, class of 1971. He began his career in construction & building, but moved on
to delivering cars up and down the east coast for DMT. Danny enjoyed the travel of this job and
meeting new people along the way. He then took a job with Boaters World ( owned by Ritz Camera
Centers) to be closer to home. He rose to assistant manager of their warehouse before being reassigned to
the Ritz Camera warehouse in Beltsville, MD. That position took him to Georgia where he managed the
Ritz Camera Distributing Center. In 2009 Danny started his own business, Action Limousine Service.


Danny was active with his children in Queen Anne's County 4-H for many years, he was one of the
founders of the Goat Gang Club. He loved family, farm life and raising all kinds of unusual animals with
his children. He grew up on his grandmother's farm and continued to till the farm until he moved to
Georgia. He also enjoyed collecting vintage farm toys.


Danny loved people and built a network of friends wherever he went. One of his greatest joys was helping
people in need, especially the elderly. He was a volunteer for the MEALS on Wheels program while
living in Georgia. He will be remembered for his generosity and kindness.
