Julius Hill

Julius (BJ) Kurt Hill II was born August 7th 1984 weighing in at just 4lbs. On Friday Oct 7th 2022, BJ was greeted in Heaven by his momma. BJ was many things, a son, brother, nephew, uncle, father, and friend. Bj was born and raised on the Yakama Indian Reservation. He graduated from the Yakama Tribal School where he was a class clown and made lasting friendships. He played basketball and cared deeply for his teammates. BJ loved so hard and unconditionally. He had the most charismatic smile, truly one that could get you to smile along with him. He could get you to smile even when he was the reason your were mad in the first place. Bj had a passion for basketball, it literally was life for him. He played ball since he was a little guy. It wasnt long before he became over 6ft. He would joke that ball road shoot gun no matter what. There was a time when you could most diffidently find him at open gym or balling it up at any empty basket court with his brothers. Bj became a Forest Fire Fighter right after high school. Bj was a Mr. Fix. He learned a trade in construction and used that to help so many people and elders. He would stroll in with minimal tools and some how get things fixed. The laughter, the hugs, the handshakes, clowning around on the court, and silly times, picking at cooking food in the kitchen, and dancing in the clubs will be greatly missed. BJ had a light that illuminated strong within his heart. Julius was preceded in death by his mother Carmanita Pimms, his Maternal Grandparents Frank and Reta Stevens . He leaves behind his son Jay-Dee and daughter Neiamonie, dad Julius Sims, his birth father Julius Hill Sr. siblings Jamaal Pimms, Dionna (Peter) Bennett, Charity Sims (Maarqqus ), and Jamisha Sims (Robert ), nieces and nephews, “Auntie” Moms, and his Gram Anita Swan (Grampa Norm) and Gram-mom Mary Sims.
