Aunt Hildred was quite a woman! Someone to certainly look up to and respect. I remember many times at her and Uncle Vinel’s house in Bobcaygeon on vacations that made memories that I’ll never forget. We still talk about the stories and laugh. So sad to hear of her passing, but glad we got to spend time with her at her condo in the last few years. The reason I smile now when I think of her is that I know they are together again having quite a reunion in the next place. Love you so much Aunt Hildred! You are truly missed.
