David - What our mom and dad didn't know about Marion County history, your mom did! We have so many pictures of Dad and your mom advertising new or reprinted Marion County history books. Whenever she went to the dentist she then went next door to visit Dad. They were both such treasurers - weren't we lucky!

Trella was a wonderful person, so smart and giving. I always enjoyed talking with her when I visited on behalf of the environmental organization that I work for. She always amazed me, including when she published her latest book, well into her mid-90s.
Best wishes to her family in this time of loss.

Kathy~
So sorry to read about your mother's passing in the Columbus Dispatch. My fond memories of your mother was when I spent the night with you many, many years ago and we got to make ourselves a corsage to wear to church the next day. I have often talked about this with my family anytime Marion, Ohio or the county fair is mentioned. May you find peace in all the great memories you and your mother experienced over the years. Blessings, Emily (Holt) Hobson

David, I was just told of your mother passing by my sister, this is very sad news. We both agreed that Trella was a one and only special kind of lady that was loved by so many. I remember my visits with her and they would always include another discussion about one of the things we both care about, "The unforgetable Whetstone River". You can never replace a Trella but we will remember her forever. The good Lord just could not wait for Trella any longer.

I corresponded with Trella years ago about family history matters. She was kind and generous in sharing her knowledge of our shared Hildreth family members. I was saddened to read of her death.

Trella was a wonderful friend and mentor for me, while I was the Marion County Park Director from 2005 through 2010. I could always go to her with questions and concerns. As many of her other friends and admirers can attest, it was a special treat to ride shotgun in her golf cart as we drove her property identifying all the flowers she personally planted and tended. Rest well, Trella and thank you for everything. I will never forget you or Chessie.

She was more than a good friend. Trella was a leader and a mentor. More over, she was an example. She never asked anyone to do things that she herself would do as well. My life is was better for knowing her.

I will always have fond memories of Trella in my heart. She gave me my first real job in 1966 as a delivery boy the day after I got my drivers license. I worked for her all through high school and sometimes at Terradise on the weekends. She was a kind and generous person.
