December 7, 2001 -

August 11, 2025

We are saddened to announce the passing of our strong, courageous, and compassionate daughter, Abigail Denise Hilton. She passed away on August 11th of 2025, after a lifelong battle with her heart at the age of 23. She was a graduate of Sullivan South High School and Northeast Community College with an associates degree in nursing. She went on to work as an RN in the pediatric department at Niswonger Children's Hospital. She loved to read, crochet, hammock, and swim, but most of all she loved spending time with her family, especially her niece who she adored the most.

Left to cherish Abigail's memories are her parents, Coantha and Adam Light, her biological father David Hilton, her sisters Sarah Hilton and Rebekah Wyant and husband Elliott and their daughter Madeline, as well as her many grandparents, aunts and uncles.

We would like you to come celebrate her life with us at Renewed Church in Kingsport. Receiving of friends and family will be Sunday, August 17th from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm with a short service to follow. Please wear blue and bring a picture of Abigail with you.

In lieu of flowers, we ask that donations be made to the Adult Congenital Heart Research department of Vanderbilt Health. https://give.vanderbilthealth.org/give/246900/#!/donation/checkout

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I remember going to church with this young lady at holy Mountain Baptist Church just wanna say how sorry I am to hear she passed away. She was a very sweet young lady and I knew she would probably go into something or she could help people because she was so compassionate for other people.
