I cherish my last visit with Hilda,as well as,all the ones I had with my precious cousin.She would prepare breakfast for me and invite her siblings to join us when I would visit Arkansas.That was always such a special time, as was spending time in her garden and flowers. She insisted that I bring some back to Okla. with me. Many of those flowers are coming up now and she had been on my mind.I regret not spending more time with her and not being there for her service.She will be missed by so many that love her. I pray God's peace and comfort for them all.

Hilda will be missed by all who knew her. She was one of the best friends and like a second mom to me. I’m blessed to have had her friendship for more than 40 years. She was the best!!!

Family, I wish I could be there with you but know that I mourn along side you all. She was truly one in a million, irreplaceable. She'll leave an empty spot in all our lives. It's a comfort knowing that she's in heaven and we'll be together again someday. Love you all.
