Kay Evans Hill Fowler, age 64, died Sunday morning, August 6, 2023 in Rex Hospital. Born August 2, 1959, in Johnston County to the late Edwin Worth and Mary Elizabeth “Lib” Evans Hill, she was preceded in death by a grandson, Wyatt James Humpal. Kay worked for several years with First Citizens Bank in Smithfield. She and Pete moved away for many years with his job, but when they returned, Mr. Frank Holding himself asked her to come back to work at the bank. She was also a long-time member of the Sanders Chapel United Methodist Church on Brogden Road where she grew up on her family farm. Kay was a wonderful and caring woman, she didn’t know an enemy and would give anyone the shirt off her back. She loved her family very much and always did what she could to support and put them first. She will be missed by so many for her kindness and loving heart. Heaven has gained a true angel.
