    Dearest Hugo, Ken, Trish, Sandra, Tom, Al, Pete, and families: I was so very sad to read of Hilda&&single&&s passing. Although it has been many years, I truly always appreciated the kindness that your family showed to me over the years. You can not know how lucky I felt to be welcomed to spend time on the farm and with your family. I never knew how Hilda kept on top of so many things for so many people every single day. The meals for your large family always arrived hot on the table, the house was so tidy, and everyone knew where they were to be and when they were to be home. There was also a lot of laughter in your home, and It was easy to see the love and respect between Hilda and Hugo, and that they loved their children and taught them by showing them the value of working hard. I know they must have loved having a full house of grandchildren around, too. Please know that if my health would allow it, I would be there in person to pay my respects, but that unfortunately is not the case. Please know that you are all in my thoughts at this difficult time, and I will say a prayer for Hilda. Love you and think of you often, Sandra. Hugs to you, Bob, and your children.

    Nancy, Chris, Adam, and Alexandria
