Hilda was a treasured friend to all who knew her !!! She and I were best of friends for sixty years. My earliest recollection is hearing her call out, to anyone within shouting distance, from the window of their second-floor apartment in the U.S. Navy housing project in Alameda, CA. "We're having coffee and cookies up here - come on over !!" It was an invitation to everyone to enjoy an evening of chit chat and munchies, and to exchange pleasantries. The memory of those gatherings were precious then, and are priceless now. To my beloved friend - May you rest in peace.....
