Julie's Grandmother (on Father's side)

Hilda and Fred Wedding Picture
1919?

I only knew Hilda as an elderly lady with a sense of humor. She always used to say, "In 1999 I will be 98." She would return to that memory when other memories had failed. She raised her ten children as a single mother after her husband was killed in an accident. She was known to say that she got pregnant every time her husband hung his hat on the bedpost! Sweet and funny to the end, she passed on in 2000.
