In 1979 Grandpa and Grandma Hill, were proud parents of their first child, Patricia Kay. The huge $1900 hospital bill had just been paid. Grandpa Hill was broke! In a few days he would be at a to-be-determined-address 500 miles away with no money, no job, and full time college classes to attend. The very next day the good news came in the mail. The health insurance from Central Foundry was going to cover all of the hospital bill. Grandpa went immediately to the hospital to get the $1900 back. The hospital had already cashed the check, and, couldn't give him the money! It would be weeks before they would get the check and the address to send it to still wasn't known. All of the back and forth of getting the money would have to be done by mail and expensive phone calls. The situation looked bleak, but, then Mary Lee (Grandma Hill) took over.
It took some sitting, some talking and a lot of patiently waiting and then it happened, Grandma Hill saved the day again. Grandpa was so proud of what she had done, and grateful for the money. "Honey how did you do it?" Was his frequently asked question in those early years. Grandma had truly saved the day!
