Dear Lynn,
I couldn't remember your maiden name, but as soon as I scrolled through and saw this picture of your dad, with his wonderful smile... I knew you belonged to him! You have always spoken so highly of your father, especially his kind and gentle manner, and this picture expresses your description of him so well. I know he will be greatly missed by you and your family, and probably many others. I am so sorry for your loss and I pray that the Lord will comfort each one of you during this difficult time.

We are so sorry for your loss and loved all our family get togethers. Grandma just thought he was such a wonderful man and was always happy to see him. They both were light of the party. He will be very much missed.

There are no words to truly express what John Hilbert meant to the Brady family. For many than 55 years we have had the honor and privilege of calling John, not only our neighbor, but an extended member of our family. When people talk about being raised by a village, they are talking about the 29th Street, Chandler Drive, 28th Street, and Parrish Avenue circle. All of the neighbors parented each child in that circle. John was front and center within our neighborhood - giving advise when requested, sharing a knowing smile when there was mischief at foot and stepping in where ever needed. I am so thankful, grateful and blessed to have grown up in such a community ... what a blessing to have folks who may not share my blood, but are definitely family. John, you are greatly loved and you will be sorely missed. Rest easy friend! With love, Lauri, Chuck and Christopher
