   I FIRST MET HER WHEN I WAS 9 YEARS OLD, I JUST DID NOT KNOW HOW SHE WOULD COME TO FIGURE IN MY LIFE UNTIL MANY YEARS LATER.

EACH DAY WAS ALWAYS SOME THING DIFFERENT FOR HILDA, SHE WAS ALWAYS HAPPY AND WOULD NEVER HESITATE TO OFFER A CUP OF COFFEE AND TEA TO WHO EVER SHE TALKED TO.

 SHE LOVED TO HAVE BBQ AND WHEN WE WERE OUT BBQING SHE ALWAYS WAS HAPPY TO BE INVITED TO HAVE SOME WITH US OR IF SHE WAS NOT WELL WE TOOK SOME TO HER.

 SHE ALSO LOVED TO WATCH THE PRICE IS RIGHT EACH AND EVERY  MORNING WITH HER CUP OF TEA BESIDE HER,SHE ALSO LOVED TO GUESS WHAT THE PRICES SHOULD BE AND WHEN THEY WERE WRONG SHE WOULD SAY I TOLD YOU SO.

ALTHOUGH SHE NEVER DRANK COFFEE, SHE LOVED HER TIM HORTON'S HOT CHOCOLATE AND WAS HAPPY WHEN SHE WENT TO GET ONE EVEN AT 8 OCLOCK AT NIGHT.

 SHE TAUGHT ME TO DO SOME THING CALLED SWEDISH WEAVING AND BY THIS I WAS ABLE TO MAKE ALL SORTS OF BEAUTIFUL BLANKETS AND PLACE MATS AND DOILIES.

SHE STEPPED UP AND HELPED ME WITH MY GIRLS (HER GRANDCHILDREN) WHEN SHE FELT THEY NEEDED A TALKING TO, AND SHE ALWAYS DID IT WITH LOVE AND NEVER MADE THEM FEEL GUILTY.

  SHE ALWAYS TOOK THE TIME TO LAUGH WITH THEM AND TELL THEM SOME STORY OR OTHER TO MAKE THEM LAUGH WHEN THEY FELT DOWN.

 SHE WAS A GENUINE FRIEND AND SHE WILL BE MISSED SO VERY MUCH

 REST IN PEACE MY FRIEND

 HILDA RICHARDSON

 FEB.28 1935 TO OCTOBER 10 2009

SHE LEAVES BEHIND MANY BEATIFUL MEMORIES FOR THOSE OF US WHO ARE STILL HERE.
