Hildegard was quite an independent and strong woman.

William and Norman came thereafter and she became a stay at home mother for them. She was the planner and organizer of their family. She and Konrad enjoyed a few cruises, great road trips, lots of camping, European Travel and going to the Symphony and Ballet. She loved to entertain out of town house guests and always had a warm welcome to all! She loved the Summer time where she and Konrad gave numerous swim parties and BBQ's. She enjoyed swimming in their pool until late in her years!
She will be greatly missed by all who loved her! A Memorial Service will be held in honor of her on June 23, 2013 at 4:00 p.m. at Cupertino Union Church.
