Bruce Irwin Hill
1947-2024
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Bruce on the 6th of March 2024 aged 76 at Bethsaida Retirement Village surrounded by family. Dearly loved life partner of Raewyn, father to James, Mildred, Timothy, Theresa and William, and a proud and much loved grandfather/ Daba. Beloved son of the late Owen and Faye Hill, and brother to James and Malcolm. Also, a treasured father in-law, brother in-law, son in-law, uncle and friend to many.
In his earlier years, Bruce travelled to and lived in many different places but always held a special place in his heart for the people of Papau New Guinea. Bruce will be fondly remembered for his many stories about his incredible adventures.
The family would like to extend a special thank-you to Bethsaida Retirement Village for all their help and support they have given to Bruce and our family throughout these past few months. We will be forever grateful to the staff for all the love and care they showed Bruce in his final months and to his family.

It was Bruce's wish to not have a funeral and instead his ashes will be scattered privately by family later on.
