Praying for Hilda’s family in your sad loss. I still find it hard to believe she is no longer with us – but she is in our hearts. Glad to have known her.

Dear Aunty Hilda, I will always remember you beautiful smile and twinkly blue eyes with love.
May you rest easy with Uncle Clive.
My sincere condolences to your family, my heart is broken for their loss but I know you have your angel wings and will be their heavenly guardian xoxo

Dear Carol and family,

My heartfelt condolences on the loss of your mom, Hilda. It has been many years since I last saw Hilda and her late husband, Clive (my first cousin). However, seeing her photos on Facebook, I was struck by how recognisable she remained—she aged so gracefully. Take comfort in knowing that Hilda is now reunited with Clive in a better place.

Thinking of you all during this difficult time.

My beloved sister Hilda
Hilda has always played a major role in my life. Being 16 when I was born Hilda became my second
mother, guiding me through my childhood years.
I resented her bossing me around and telling me what I should do. Due to the age difference people
often joked that she was my mother, something that both of us aggressively denied.
There was only the two of us until Carol was born when I was 9 and Derrick when I was 10.
As Hilda and I grew older we developed a closer and strong relationship especially after Clive passed
away so suddenly.
When I think of Hilda I see a very kind, soft hearted person, always willing to help the needy. She
spent hours knitting and crocheting for different charities.
We would chat via WhatsApp 2 to 3 times every single day. I knew exactly what she was doing and
vice versa.
Her passing away has left a huge empty hole in my life which will never be filled. I miss you every day
my sis.
Hilda had strong Christian values and I therefore know that her life would carry on after death.
Love you, Hilda my dear sister. You will always be part of me.
Your little sister, Cheryl.

Dear Hilda
We talked and laughed twice a day sharing the excitement of the day. You were the breeze of fresh air that made each day as precious as a gem stone.
During those conversations I had never doubted your compassion and love for the needy and your friends. You are the most honest person that I know. Your answer would be that it is debatable but we both know that it was your passion to serve others unconditionally.
We laughed whenever you mentioned that you want to swim with the dolphins. We were in agreement that it would not be possible as you can not swim.
The pillars of your strength is nestled in your strong believes as a Christian. The foundation of your life has always been the acceptance of the Lord as your Saviour.
You often spoke about Carol, Derrick, Trevor and Tristan. How you loved them unconditionally and equally. I know this because you told me so.
Now it is time for me to say goodbye to you, Hilda. You must enjoy your new life and I know that you are in great hands. God will always be with you. You will always be in my thoughts.
I love you.
P.s. I will look after your little sister, it’s a promise.

Happy ‘New Birth’ day Aunty Hilda!
I know you will be very happy in your new home with JC.
I remember your:
Gentleness, always smiling face, love for animals, caring for the elderly, continuous knitting, owl collection, amazing cut-out picture library responsible for many A+ scores on my assignments.
You were the one who introduced me to freezing bread and a face cleaning routine at a cosmetic party.
Thanks for being another mom for me while I was growing up.

Dear Hilda, she will be so missed. She was an inspiration and very much loved by her friends at the Oasis Bereavement group. Hilda was always there to encourage and give help when needed and had become a good friend to so many who were fortunate to know her. A very special lady.

I only met Hilda a few months ago and her warmth and kindness immediately impressed me. Such a lovely friendly lady She will be greatly missed

My friendship with Carol dates back to 1980. I have known Mr and Mrs Alexander since then. In August 2022 I visited Carol and Trevor in the UK. It was fabulous to see how well Aunty Hilda had settled. A quick walk into the village to volunteer at her charity shops or attend crochet club, kept her active. She had a wonderful circle of friends and most of all she was safe and loved.
Her passing just a few weeks after her 80th birthday came as a shock. Knowing how loved she was and that she lead a fulfilled life during her 7 years in the UK must bring some comfort to those who loved her.
Now reunited with Uncle Clive after 9 years.
RIP Aunty Hilda.
Condolences to Carol, Derrick and their families ❤️ 💙 💜

Dear Carol, Trevor and Tristan

I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Hilda’s passing. Whilst I only met Hilda on a few occasions over the years, she was such a lovely lady, so warm and gentle and always smiling and laughing. Thinking of you all at this very difficult time. xx

Hilda
You was an amazing lady. Always making us all smile and laugh. I will miss you asking for any jewellery to sort on my rotation.
God bless you lovely angel

In memory of Hilda, with lots of love from the Hall family xx
