Dear John: I only learned of Hilary's passing tonight. I am shocked and saddened and my heart aches for you. How I loved that girl. We worked together for so many years in ICU and whenever she came to do physio on my patients the day always got brighter. We had many, many laughs over all those years. She was never afraid to put on gloves, mask and gown and pitch right in to help in whatever situation needed dealing with. Hilary was as much nurse as she was a physiotherapist. Bless you John and know love and prayers and warm hugs are coming to you as I remember Hilary. Love Kathy Drok

Dear John & Family.
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Hilary was an exceptional gal and my memories of her are her laughter and music. When I hear I Psalm sung I think of her. Sorry I can't join you today as you celebrate her life, but I am with you in prayer, as is St. Mary's Ponoka.

John and Family,
I was surprised and saddened to hear of Hilary's sudden passing. At times like this we are reminded to enjoy the company of family and friends, as life can be taken without notice.
Hilary's infectious laughter will resonate in my fond memories of her. There will be several cars of friends coming from the Red Deer Hospital to support you in your time of sadness.

John, I was so saddened to hear of Hilary's sudden passing. As you know I worked with her for a number of years, and appreciated her incredible sense of humor and wit. She knew how to light up a room with her presence and no one looked forward to Christmas quite like Hilary! The most precious thing in her life was you John and her family and I know she will continue to watch over you all. My heart goes out to you and your family John in this very difficult time of loss.

I can't express how much I will miss Aunt Hilary, a wonderful, wise and funny woman. I wish I could be closer and be there to comfort everyone who will be missing her. Every time I think of her, I feel so sad she is gone, but all my happy memories of her make me smile through my tears. Fond goodbye to a very special lady xx

I am so sorry to hear about Hilary. We will miss her smile and her laugh and how beautiful the two of you always looked together. John, I want to just hug you and tell you thank you for being my friend and sharing the joy both you and Hilary have brought into my life. Always a little joke, kind words or a smile and a wave. I hope we will be able to stay in contact and I wish you healing from such a sad time.
I love you Mr. Tiny,
Love, Maureen

Such sincere condolences I offer, at the passing of Hilary. A wonderful example, I was able to witness, of a loving mother to Dave. One who was always keen to jump in with her quick wit and pleasant personality. Truly someone who touched people's lives, just by being herself.
