Hilda was a devout catholic and a member of Saint Teresa's Catholic Church in Premont, Texas where she resided all her life. Her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren were her pride and joy. Hilda was gracious, compassionate, generous, and will be remembered for her devotion to her family. Although she was a quiet person, she imparted wisdom with few words. She chose to see the good in everyone and every situation and always had a smile and a hug to give. She had a gentle spirit and a forgiving heart. She was loved by all who had the honor of meeting her.
The family would like to offer a special thanks for the care provided by Cimarron Place Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Corpus Christi and Opus Care Hospice. Another special thank you to Ona Wishard for her care and attention as a neighbor and friend.

Herbert, Elma and Family; Hubert and Family; Hector, Diana and Family:
We extend our heartfelt condolences on the loss of your mother, our beloved Tia Hilda. I shall forever hold dear in my heart the wonderful summers that we spent in Premont. Tia Hilda would always greet us with open arms, treating us like royalty from the moment that we arrived. I remember Linda's beautiful room where we played for hours on end, the humongous boys' bedroom with three twin beds, and the exquisite living and dining room that had beautiful glassed doors that was definitely "off limits". She was such a strong woman with a spine of steel, but yet so loving, kind, generous, and compassionate. I shall never forget how she was always there for Mami and for us, especially after our father died. We pray that the Lord love comfort you and strengthen you.
May the memories of yesterday comfort your soul today.
Love,
Sandra and Homero Alvarez
