Born May 8, 1936 in Baltimore, Maryland he was the son of the late Ernest Theodore Hill, Sr. and Helen Mary (Carroll) Hill. For the past eleven years, Ted had been the loving and devoted partner of Gail Martensen of Eldersburg, Maryland until her passing in September, 2020. Ted wrote for her memorial upon her passing “I will leave this World with her still holding my hand”.
Ted grew up in Baltimore along with his twin brother Carroll, attending Towson High School and graduating in 1954. He spent the next few years in the U.S. Army reserves, and worked alongside his father in the family hardware business, Hillendale Paint and Hardware of Parkville.
