Colby Clay Hill (Plainview)

Colby Clay Hill was born on April 13th, 1990 to Andy Hill and Sonye Shields. He was the youngest of 4, and full of life and energy as a young child and teen.

Colby was a hard worker, a shade tree mechanic, and a skilled yardman, thanks to his dad and a fellow hard-headed neighbor and family friend, Donnie McKinney, who trained him well and gave him the name “Bob” or “Colby Bob”.
