I only knew Hedda a little, but my mom and Hedda were fast friends. Mom thought the world of Hedda and enjoyed lots if time together. Maybe even now as they both left this planet. Truly easy to remember Hedda. So bright and fun to be around

I worked at Villa Marin and talked with Hedda a lot. One memory I have is talking with her about the Holocaust I promised her I would make sure my children and grandchildren would never forget history. I share her story of her escape often. She was a remarkable woman. Wendy Newgren.

Seeing this remembrance post after thinking of Hedda these past few days. I knew Hedda through my mom, Emilie, who lived in same retirement community as Hedda. They were friends. I loved talking with Hedda as she was so knowledgeable and full of life. I hope she and my mom are having a great time now. Thanks, Sue Anderson

Dear Jeannie and Bobby,
I cannot believe life will be the same without your mother.We were friends and working partners for over fifty years. Our frequent phone calls were always filled with jokes and nostalgia about our lives and work. Tears now and memories later, Helen Lazorisak
