Hilda called yesterday morning and told us that her mother had passed away. She was quite upset as you might imagine. She and Kari shared some tears and Kari tried to comfort her as best she could. But, what do you say other than "I am so sorry." I guess that is about all you can say, and just hope that is enough.
Hilda was not sure when the funeral would be and we are not sure how long it will be before she will be back. While we can't wait for her return, I feel very selfish even thinking about it. After seeing what my Mother just went through with the death of her Mother and the ensuing issues related to disposing of the estate, I think it will likely be several more weeks till Hilda is able to return.
We are keeping her and her family in our prayers.
