Marie Hills Davis, daughter of Elder and Mrs. George W. Hills, was born Oct. 28, 1898, in Nortonville, Kan., and died April 9, 1955, at Los Angeles, Calif.

Her childhood was spent in Nortonville, Kan., and Salem, W. Va., where her father was pastor of the Seventh Day Baptist churches. When he became pastor of the Los Angeles Church in 1913 she transferred her membership to that church. Her life was spent in helping others. As a teacher of home economics at Belvedere Junior High School, where she taught for 26 years, her particular joy was to work with problem youth. During the years she was one of the leaders in the Los Angeles Church, serving as church clerk for many years.

She leaves her husband, Herbert H., of San Gabriel, Calif.; two daughters: Adelaide Gregory, of Arcadia, and Winifred Wheelock, of San Bernardino; her mother, Mrs. George W. Hills, of Los Angeles; and six grandchildren.

Funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. Leon R. Lawton, at the "Little Stone Church" of Turner, Stevens & Turner, Alhambra, Calif., on April 13, 1955. Interment was in Forest Lawn Memorial Park.
