Adelynn Mae Harrison (July 16, 2023–December 15, 2025)

/

Born July 16, 2023, our sweet Adelynn (Addy) Mae Harrison entered a world filled with joy, love, and the energy of her three older, protective brothers. Though she was the youngest and only girl, she quickly grew into her baby sister role. She loved all things girly but knew how to keep up with her big brothers even if it meant playing in the dirt. She could fend for herself and knew what she wanted.

Her beautiful, innocent spirit brought immeasurable joy and love to our family. Her parents, Derrick and Krysti, delighted in every moment with their precious daughter, cherishing her sweet personality and the joy she brought to their lives. Everywhere she went, she bounced or ran with her little blond tuft of hair blowing in the wind, dragging her blanket behind—her spunky personality and smiling eyes charming everyone around her.

On December 15, 2025, Addy, only two and a half years old, was called home to be with the Lord. Though her time on earth was brief, Adelynn’s life was a precious gift from God to us. As Psalm 127:3 reminds us, “Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him,” and she certainly was. Addy was that gift—formed by the Lord and artfully “knit . . . together in [her] mother’s womb.” God tells us that “every day of [her] life was recorded in [His] book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed” (Psalm 139:13, 16). We know that she was and is precious to God. He loves her even more than we do.

Though we are crushed in our spirit that she is absent from us, we know that she is alive in the presence of God, safely in His keeping. We know this because God’s own precious Son was born and died to pay the payment for our sins. But Jesus rose from the grave and defeated death forever.

She leaves behind her devoted parents, Derrick and Krysti, and her three loving older brothers, Ryland (8), Beckhym (6), and Cayman (4), who cherished her deeply. She was also well loved by her grandparents, Karyn St. Amand, Keith St. Amand, Sr., Christine and Rick Harrison, many doting aunts, uncles, and cousins. Her church family and youth group will feel her absence as well and miss her laughter and little voice in our halls. We all look forward to the day very soon when we will hug her once again.

Earle James Hillier (April 11, 1931–July 6, 2025)

/

Earle was born April 11, 1931, in Torrance, CA to the late Harry Hillier and Elsie Hazlett Hillier. He was preceded in death by his brothers, Harry Hillier and Walter Hillier, wife Peggy Hillier, and son David Hillier. He is survived by his wife of 48 years, Helen Hillier; daughters Brenda Johnston and Julia (Donald) Driggs (with Peggy); son Micah (Christina) Hillier (with Helen); 15 grandchildren and many great-grandchildren. 

Earle lived most of his life in California. He was raised in a family who loved the Lord and served in the church (his father was a deacon in the American Baptist Church in Torrance). After graduating high school, Earle’s first job was as a tomato picker. Earle joined the Air Force and served during the Korean War. After his military service, he made a career working for the prestigious Los Angeles Times. After the tragedy of losing his first wife, Peggy, God blessed Earle with Helen, whom he married in 1976.  

Earle loved the Lord, his family, music, language, and telling stories of his travels around the world to everyone who would listen. Though Earle experienced great hardship and loss throughout his life, he would often praise God for His many blessings. Earle was known for his love of the Lord Jesus Christ. He often sang and quoted gospel songs about heaven, some of his favorites being “Face to Face,” “If We Never Meet Again This Side of Heaven,” and “At the Cross” (the version he learned from an Alaskan Christian in 1950). Earle was known for his quiet nature, firm commitments, love of the truth, and his desire to see everyone he met know about Jesus. He was known to bid farewell with the phrases, “Vaya con Dios” and “God be with you.” 

There will be a funeral service for Earle Hillier on Tuesday, July 22, 2025, at 11:00 AM at Harvest Baptist Church, 153 Miller Pond Road, Rock Hill, SC, 29732 with Rev. Marshall A. Fant IV officiating. A visitation will be held in the Welcome Center at the church starting at 10:00 AM. A private interment will follow at Fort Jackson National Cemetery.

In Loving Memory of Scott David Curtis 

Scott Curtis, a devoted follower of Christ, loving husband, father, and grandfather, passed away peacefully on May 31, 2025, at the age of sixty-five. 

He was a man of unwavering faith, whose life was a testament to the love and grace of Jesus Christ. He dedicated his life to full-time ministry at the Bible Broadcasting Network. For forty-four years, he was the beloved husband of Paula Curtis, with whom he shared a lifetime of joy, partnership, and devotion. Together, they built a family rooted in love and guided by faith.
