Dean, Sharon, and family,
Just want to extend our sympathies to you during this time of loss. May God grant you his peace and presence as you grieve and remember your mother/grandmother's life. I have many fond memories of "Aunt Hilda" from my growing up years - she always had a quick smile.

dean, Sharon and family: Our sincere sympathy to you in the loss of your mom and gramma. Hilda was a good friend and a wonderful person to visit and spend time with. Her Christian witness was always present. We will miss her but know that she is enjoying her presence with Darren. From Mel and Arla Jassman

Hi Dean, Sharon and family - My sympathy in the loss of Aunt Hilda, your mother. She alway said " I don't know why God still has me around", her prayers are now answered. My most treasured memory of her is her infectious laugh. She had a positive outlook on life and could laugh at anything. I know that she will be missed by all who knew her. Love Don Eslinger
