Mrs. Hilda was a very faithful volunteer at North Okaloosa Medical Center for many years. She was also an active member of Senior Circle and often volunteered there as well. She was a lovely lady and Heaven is a happier place because she is there.

Larry and Ray, so sorry for your loss. I always enjoyed visiting with Mrs Hilda at Shoal Creek when I would be there visiting my mother. She was always so good to everyone during her years at Baker School. Praying for all the family and God’s comfort to each of you during this time.
