Mildred Irene Daniels Hill, born August 11, 1941, in Greeneville, Tennessee, passed away peacefully on November 11, 2025, at the age of 84. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 55 years, Elgin "Junior" Hill Jr., who passed away on April 30, 2016; her parents, Lynn Denver Daniels and Dorothy Marie Waddell Daniels; her sisters, Joyce Alberta Henley, Shelby Jean Gonzalez, and Mary Frances Daniels; and her sister-in-law, Shirley Faye Daniels.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, November 15, 2025, at 12:00 PM from the chapel of Daves-Culbertson Funeral Home in Tullahoma, Tennessee. Burial will follow at Rutledge Hill Cemetery in Hillsboro, Tennessee. Friends may visit at the funeral home on Saturday from 11:00 AM until the time of service.

Mildred is survived by her loving daughter, Rebecca "Becky" Hill Prince and her husband James "Jimmy" Prince. She is also survived by her grandson, Daniel Prince, and his wife Jacqueline Prince, along with two cherished great-grandchildren, Ember Prince and Edge Prince, who brought her endless joy and laughter.

She is also survived by her four devoted siblings: brothers, Norman Daniels and Joseph Daniels, and sisters Dottie Davis and her husband Fred Davis, and Reita Short, and several nieces and nephews.

Mildred dedicated her life to caring for others, working as a Certified Nursing Assistant for 43 years before retiring from Coffee County Nursing Home. Her compassion, patience, and gentle touch left a lasting impact on countless lives throughout her long career in healthcare.

After marrying Junior, the two settled down in Hillsboro, Tennessee, where they worked hard and farmed side by side. Later, they moved to Manchester, Tennessee, just across the road from their family. For decades, Mildred's home was a place of love and togetherness - a spot her grandson Daniel visited nearly every day for nearly 30 years.

Outside of work, Mildred devoted herself to her family. Her husband, Junior, was a survivor of polio, and she spent much of her free time lovingly assisting and caring for him throughout their marriage. Her quiet strength, loyalty, and selflessness were evident in every act of care she gave.

Mildred was known for her generous spirit and kind heart. She loved making sur everyone around her was well fed and cared for. Her kitchen was always a place of comfort, laughter, and home-cooked meals shared by those she loved most.

Mildred will be remembered for her warmth, strength, and the love she gave so freely to everyone in her life.
