Sign In Dorothy Hill Bynum July 13, 1932 - November 17, 2021 Share Obituary: Tribute Wall Obituary & Events Share a memory Obituary Mrs. Dorothy Marie Hill Bynum, known to most as “Dot”, went to be with her Lord on Wednesday morning, November 17, 2021. A native of Greene County, she was born July 13, 1932, the daughter of Henry and Josie Agnes Radford Hill. “Dot”, as she was best known, was a homemaker and farmer’s wife. Along with her husband, and often at his side, she worked hard in the fields, the garden and the tobacco barn. Dot possessed a tremendous work ethic and was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother to her own family as well as having been a devoted daughter to her parents and devoted sister to her siblings. Dot enjoyed cooking and having her family around her kitchen table and a big appetite was necessary for the meals she would prepare. An amazing cook, she was famous for her homemade desserts and there was always a yummy treat for anyone who came by to visit. It was a pure joy for Dot to see her family and friends visit and eat. An immaculate housekeeper, Dot believed a home should be spotless. Her keen sense of keeping things clean and in their place led her to start cleaning houses for others in the winter months when the farm work was less demanding. Dot was proud that the money she earned was able to assist in her daughter’s college education; she always put her family and others ahead of herself without complaint. In addition to her parents, Dot was preceded in death by her husband of 53 years, Ralph Gordon Bynum; and siblings, Kathleen Willis, Lula Williams, Lynwood Murphy Hill, Frances Fields, Sallie Beaman, and Joseph “Buddy” Hill. Left to cherish her memory are her son, Ralph Alan Bynum and wife, Ann; daughter, Doris Bynum Croom and husband, Billy; grandchildren, Brett A. Bynum and friend, Amber, Jordan T. Bynum and wife, Nicole, Jennifer Bennett, Jessica Bennett and Jay Bennett; step-grandchildren, Lindsey Coley (Brian) and Justin Croom; a special sister-in-law, Laura Bynum Wade; and a daughter not by birth, Jennifer Moye Moore. Funeral services will be held graveside 2 PM Friday, November 19th, at the Snow Hill Cemetery with Reverend Leon Grubbs and Reverend Percy Cunningham officiating. The family will receive friends immediately following the service and other times at the residence. In lieu of flowers, memorials are encouraged to the Free Will Baptist Children’s Home, PO Box 249, Middlesex, NC 27557 or Cragmont Assembly, 1233 N. Fork Road, Black Mountain, NC 28711.
