Keith Eric Hilton, age 43

Keith Eric Hilton, age 43, of Hot Springs passed away Saturday, September 5, 2020. He came into this world, and into the lives of his parents, Ricky Lynn Hilton and Sandra Lynn Barner-Hilton on February 13, 1977.

Both he, and his parents, belonged to the Pleasant Hill Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses. As an active Witness, Keith’s love for God and his neighbors, was shown in his willing and compelling nature to talk to any and all he came into contact with. Keith had a natural personality that would draw ones to him. He was a kind, helpful, and loving son, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. This was evident in that he was blessed with literally hundreds of individuals who were not just fellow worshipers, but close, personal friends, who cared for him very much. Keith suffered a
debilitating condition that forced him to undergo complete rehabilitation. After regaining a measure of his health, Keith became interested in knife forging, which eventually found him making his own knives, even selling some of his achievements. His health issue eventually claimed his life, a
life shared by his four children; Christian Jacob Ingram, Malachi Allen Hilton, Zachary Eric Hilton, and Laurie Jolene Hilton; grandchildren Luke Hilton, and Lily Hilton; his parents Ricky and Sandra Hilton, two sisters; Jennifer Brooke Pompeo, and Whitney Ellene Hilton; numerous Aunts, Uncles,
Cousins and his extended family of friends. While he may be missed now, those that knew him and loved him, have an unshakable faith that they will see him again, on an earth void of sickness, perfectly transformed into what God had originally planned in creations beginning. Death may be
powerful, it may be inevitable for some, but it is in no way comparable to the power and desire of Keith’s heavenly father Jehovah. It is in his memory that Keith is now, safe, secure, merely asleep, waiting for the time when his God’s anointed King, Christ Jesus says to him, as he said to
his dear friend Lazarus,”Keith, come out!”
