When I would go by her office to pick them up, she would always talk about Lynchburg and the surrounding areas.

To my best cousin, Hilda. Your life of dedication to love and justice for all people will never be forgotten. You are an example for all of us. I will truly miss you and love you.

Dear Cousin Hilda:

Your irrepressible and irreplaceable presence will remain with us forever and always.

You and your beloved husband, Charlie, exemplified what it means to be a true and sincere public servant. And by your examples, you showed us all what it truly means to be great.

Love,
Diane

You paid for my schooling at the University of the District of Columbia enabling me to major in...
