February 3, 1934 — November 29, 2022

Elaine Hill, 88, of Langdon, ND, passed away Tuesday, November 29, 2022, at Maple Manor Care Center in Langdon.

Elaine Marie Karas was born February 3, 1934, in Stirum, ND, to Joseph and Blanche (Ficenec) Karas. She grew up and attended school in the Stirum area. She furthered her education at Ellendale where she received her associate’s degree in elementary education and later attended Mayville State University for her bachelor’s degree. On June 19, 1954, Elaine married Isaac Hill in Stirum, ND. They made their home in Ashley, Scranton, and then moved to Langdon. Elaine taught elementary education and was the Title I teacher in Langdon for many years.

Elaine was a faithful person and very involved at St. Alphonsus Church through Catholic Daughters and Altar Society. She also was an Eucharistic minister, a reader at daily mass, participated in the choir, attended bible study, and helped with adoration. She was an avid card player and enjoyed going to the Senior Center to play bunco. Elaine was a member of the Sweet Adelines and of the Maple Manor Auxiliary. She was a collector of nativity scenes, dishes, and bells - many of which were memorabilia from places she had traveled. She was a huge fan of her children and grandchildren and tried to attend as many events of theirs as she could.
