We want to thank everyone for taking the time to come and share such a beautiful tribute to Adrian being brought home. The way everyone came out and came together was beautiful and no words could justify the outpouring of love, respect, and unity of what we saw all along the way from the airport to Richfield. We were filled with such honor to be in that line representing such an amazing man, husband, father, son, brother, brother in law and uncle to us but also filled with such heartbreak and sadness that he is gone. The family would like to thank everyone for all of their love, prayers, support and donations through this very difficult time.
UPDATE:
Adrian will be flown back and brought into Richfield around 5:00 pm on Monday, February 21st. He will be escorted in by his family in blue. Anyone who would like to watch is more than welcome to join our family as we pay tribute to Sergeant Adrain David Hillin as he comes into the town he served, protected, and loved.
We are so happy and blessed to be able to say Gunner is out of the hospital, with family, and is doing well.
Kenzie is still fighting for her life in the hospital in Georgia and is fighting as hard as she can to stay here with us. She is such a strong individual and we are hoping and praying she will be okay. Her amazing children, mom and sister have been with her and we appreciate all they have done to keep us updated daily as they stay strong for her and support her there while we are all here in Utah praying with all our might.
We want to thank you all for your kind words, prayers, and donations while we try and navigate through this very hard time.
Please, please, please keep Kenzie and her family in your thoughts and prayers.

On Thursday, February 10 the Hillin/Roberts family’s lives were changed forever from a tragic accident. Adrian, Kenzie, and their son Gunner had flown out to Georgia to watch and celebrate their oldest son as he graduated from the army infantry training. While there they were involved in a terrible and tragic car accident that took the life of our beloved Adrian and put Kenzie and Gunner in very critical and life threatening conditions. Kenzie and Gunner were flown by life flight to two separate hospitals in two different states and are fighting for their lives. We would like to take the financial burden and stress off of this wonderful family and have set this go fund me up for medical costs and funeral costs. Every little bit helps and we appreciate and thank you all for your kindness and support.

The Sevier County Sheriff's Office is deeply saddened to inform you of the passing of Sergeant Adrian Hillin. Sgt. Hillin, his wife, and youngest son were involved in a traffic accident out of state while attending a military graduation for their oldest son.
Sgt Adrian Hillin began his law enforcement career with the Sevier County Sheriff's Office in August of 2000 where he had an assignment in the jail. Adrian was assigned to patrol in 2003. He was later promoted to Sergeant in February of 2009 where he has been an example to the deputies he supervised. He loved interdiction and had good success.
We offer our sincere condolences to the Hillin and Roberts families. We want to thank our brothers and sisters in blue in Alabama. We will release further details as we get them.
