Scott and family,
I am sorry to see such a wonderful person taken from us. I always had and will have the highest respect for your Mom. It was so easy to love her so much! It was a very difficult time in her life to be in Liberty Village, but at first she was in much better condition. I applauded you and Sue for visiting her so often. There are many that never get visitors, even from their family. I always tried to make a point to see her if possible when Jerry and I were their. She went through so much heart ache when Rick passed. Just know they are at peace in a better place. Maybe now all that pain has gone away. God got a very good and wonderful person. Try to remember the good times, as there were many.
Scott, Sue and family,
So very sorry to hear of Hilma passing, she had a beautiful smile when ever you seen her, always took the time to say hello. Sending thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
Scott, Sue and family
We were sorry to hear of Hilma passing, she always took the time to say hello, with a smile on her face. Sending thoughts and prayers for your family’s loss.
So sorry to hear of Hilma’s passing, I will always remember visiting her at Liberty and how cheerful she was, even when she did not feel well.
We are really going to miss seeing Hilma at Liberty, we had some great visits. My Dad expressed that it was hard to lose an old friend, he said he knew her for 60 years. She was alway very nice to him and would stop by his room and visit. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all, it is always hard to say final good-byes. Hilma and Mikie are probably dancing right now. Take care! Judy & Dennis
Hilma always had an infectious smile. When my husband was admitted to Villa Pines Hilma recognized me and came over to
welcome him. She sure made us feel comfortable. Recently when I ran into her at Liberty Village, she came over to say hello again.
She was one special lady. Prayers to your family.
Hilma was a kind person; always enjoyed working with her at the Courthouse. Our sympathy to her family at this sad time.

Sending love and good thoughts. Hilma (and Mickey) were always one of the delights of visiting Wisconsin!
I am so sorry to hear of Hilma’s passing, but knowing she is with the Lord and Mickey brings comfort. May Hilma have eternal peace.
I had the honor and privilege of working at the Adams County Courthouse with Hilma for several years and when I moved out of town in 1982, kept in touch with Hilma all these 30-plus years since. She was one of my dearest friends, a mentor, and a wise, loving lady. I will miss her.
So sorry to hear of Hilma’s passing. We are all thinking of Her.

Scott and family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you always. Growing up together in Quincy are among our favorite memories. Mick and Helma were always wonderful to us and we always enjoyed our visits with them and the rest of your family. This poem gave us a sense of peace when dad and mom died. I share it with you at this time, in memory of your family members and with hopes that it brings you peace in your time of grieving, as well.
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning’s hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.
–Mary Elizabeth Frye, 1932
