We now know the name of a man
whose body washed ashore just south of Huntington on the banks of the Neches River yesterday. Authorities believe Donald
Ike Hilton, of New Caney, died while out on a fishing trip. His neighbors went to look for him after they noticed he had not
returned. Hilton was staying at his cabin near the river, and neighbors told Sheriff's Deputies that the 63 year old man
was in poor health. He had been found unconscious at his cabin on previous occasions. So it is unknown at this time if he
actually died from drowning, or from other complications related to his health. Donald Hilton's death is being ruled an
accident, and according to investigators, no autopsy will be performed. Thelma

track team. He went on to study pharmacy at the University of Houston and graduated in 1964. He was owner and operator of
their family-owned pharmacy in Baytown until 1995 when he and his wife, Brenda, moved to the Hill Country to enjoy life. He
retired in 2004 and still worked part time at local pharmacies. Ken was known as a very ethical and compassionate man who
would stop what he was doing in order to help his neighbor. Ken is survived by his loving wife of 32 years, Brenda Roberts

lieu of flowers, the family has asked that donations be made to Sid Peterson Hospice, 1121 Broadway, Kerrville, TX 78028.
A memorial service will be held at a later date. "Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely
in a pretty and well persevered body, but rather to skid in broad side, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming,
'Wow! What a ride!'" The family invites you to leave a message or memory at www. kerrvillefuneralhome.com by
