Home Town

            
             In Hiller Pennsylvania one's emotional and physical state will always be in good hands. Hiller is not a local breeding ground for underachievers but to only those who demand excellence and surely the best. As a small tight nit community Hiller resides as one of the friendliest towns in America.
             As a young child, my existence in Hiller has brought great joy and excitement. Knowing that every morning when I wake up a new fun filled day was to begin again. Every child from each block in the neighborhood would gather in the local Luzerne Park field ready and willing to play a few rounds of outrageous back yard football. Battered and bruised each one of us would then hobble home only to be nourished and fed while waiting to get ready and go ruff it again in some other type of sport.
             Throughout my eighteen years of living there many memories and the friendly locals in general have placed themselves above the rest for their uniqueness and special qualities that are not found no where else. Since Hiller has been put onto the map many have flocked to live in its lively atmosphere. Houses in my town are very close together just like the relationships the neighbors have bonded in their years of residence. In Hiller when a hand is needed it will be given and when a friend is wanted a person will surely have no problem finding one. Hiller embraces any new comer as if they have been living there forever. Its existence and purpose is not complicated, if you treat it with respect, respect to the fullest will be received back. As an individual, my hometown has supported me both physically and mentally. Without the experience of growing up there I would not know what kind of person I would be as of today.
