Wanda Jane (Dilley) Hill was born in Webster City, May 5, 1937 and went to be with the Lord on April 12, 2008, at the age of 70.

Jane was born to Calva and Laurence Dilley of Webster City. She graduated from Webster City High School in 1955. Jane was married to Marion (Muggs) Hill on December 22, 1956 and moved to Des Moines, Iowa.

Jane is survived by daughter, Debra (Chuck) Cook of Prairie City, Iowa; granddaughter, Kimberly (Damian) Leone of San Diego, California; grandson, Matthew (Carolina) Dowell of Fresno, California; great grandson, Marion (Muggs) Leone of San Diego, California; brother, Dale (Caroline) Dilley of Stanhope, Iowa; brother, Jerry Dilley of Ellsworth, Iowa; brother, Dean Dilley of Stratford, Iowa; her companion, Mike Rose and many nieces and nephews.

Jane is preceded in death by her husband of 42 years, Marion (Muggs) Hill; her parents, Calva and Laurence Dilley; her in-laws, Mary and Kendall Hill; her sisters in-law, Carol Dilley and Jan Dilley.

Jane worked beside her husband “Muggs” for 30 plus years in their own business. (Hills Body Shop in Des Moines, Iowa)

She loved her family, home, cooking, baking and people. Her favorite place to be was home or working in her yard. She loved people to visit, her flowers, fishing, pets and babies.

One would say she was never idle, “Busy” should have been her middle name, nor did a stranger she meet. All will remember Jane and miss her, whether you are family, friend or an acquaintance.

Funeral services will be 2 p.m., Friday, April 18, 2008 at Hamilton’s near Highland Memory Gardens, 121 NW 60th Ave., Des Moines. Visitation will be 6-8 p.m. Thursday at the funeral home
