He was the oldest of three children born to Wilbur and Helen (Funnell) Pharis. Hilton was predeceased by his mother (1954) and father (1988), brother Max (1979), sister and brother-in-law Phyllis (2018) and Ken Moore (2024).
He is survived by his wife, Alta, and his children,
Brenda (Elden) Squair, their children Elise (Aaron) Farough, Tala (Dustin) Esau, Jennith (Rylan) Farough, Connan (Jessica) Squair
Judy (Einar) Nelson, their children, Luanne (Brent) Flett, Logan (Emily) Nelson, Shaelyn (Justin) Dorey

and sister-in-law, Barbara Pharis.
Hilton and Alta have 29 great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews. Hilton valued his relatives and was interested in all their lives.
Hilton spent his life on the Elkhorn Stock Ranch his grandfather established in 1919. He attended ten years of school in Willow Valley and completed high school by correspondence. In early adulthood he spent his winters on his trapline on Hidden Creek and the Northwest Branch in the Gap. He would walk the entire distance, living in the cabins along the route. He was often gone for six weeks at a time. On August 25th, 1956, he married Alta McRae, and they enjoyed 68 years together.
Hilton had a keen interest in and respect for the natural world. He had extensive knowledge of the plant, bird and animal species in the area he lived in. He was a responsible steward of the land and actively engaged the ranch in conservation and preservation initiatives. Hilton was an accomplished horseman and had a good string of horses, including two of his favorites, Flicka and Goldie.
Hilton was a passionate and dedicated member of his community, including the Oldman River Planning Commission, Willow Valley Trophy Club (charter member), Provincial Development Appeal Board, the advisory committee for the development of the Oldman River Dam and twenty-eight years on the MD of Pincher Creek Council.
Hilton had a deep faith in God that governed his life. He was extremely hospitable and generous.
Hilton and Alta’s open home to family and friends included many years of fellowship meetings, which they loved.
He was an avid chess player and reader, particularly enjoying history and poetry. Tennyson and Longfellow were among his favorites. He credited his love of poetry and his memory of so many poems to an influential teacher who engaged and encouraged her students in poetry.
In 1995 Hilton and Alta started spending their winters in Arizona. They enjoyed many activities and developed some very close friendships. When Hilton turned 95, they were unable to continue their trips south. They moved into Pincher Creek in 2022.
Hilton’s faith was his foundation throughout his lifetime, an inspiration to so many.
A Memorial Service will be held at Pincher Creek Community Hall, 287 Canyon Dr, Pincher Creek, AB, on Thursday, September 12, 2024, at 1:30 PM.
