Tom & Erin,
I just found out about your mom from my sister. I'm sorry to have found out so late. My heart-felt condolences to you and Erin for your loss.
I have fond memories of both your mom and dad. They were always there for us kids when we came down to your house to visit. I really have fond memories of those times.
Thanks,
Eric
My mother, Evelyn Talley, and I were very sorry to learn of your mother's death and not be able to attend the service. Hilda and Mother shared many happy years together in the Covington Garden Club, planning flower shows and creating designs. Between the two of them, they won an outstanding number of ribbons. Our sympathy to you and your wife. Carolyn Talley Pearce
our oldest Garden Club member. she gave a lot to our club. My prayers are with the family at her loss.
If ever there was a true southern lady, it was Aunt Hilda. She will be missed. Jane Gennusa
Tom, I'm so sorry to hear about your mom's passing. She & your dad were great supporters of the bunch of us out at the old KP Airport, and truthfully, if it hadn't been for them giving so much support to all of us young guys(at the time) out there, I doubt that many of us would have learned to fly and go on to have aviation careers. God bless you, Hilda and give you eternal peace & happiness with Sonny and the Lord.
As a child, I remember Hilda for her wonderful mothering qualities-she always made the neighborhood kids homemade Chex Mix and Fruit Punch with a 'surprise' in the bottom, which was fruit cocktail...what a gracious woman with such warm and wonderful qualities as well as the gift to all of us in her son Tom!
Thanks for great memories, Hilda, and Peace and Happiness to you in Heaven with Sonny and all of your old friends...and thanks for watching over us all !!!
