  1. CandleImageHilde was a treasure! She was blessed with a long life and lived through a lot of history both in Germany and the USA. Was a blessing to visit her childhood home and church with Linda and Mike a couple years ago. Hilde or Nana as she was known in the family welcomed the Whitener clan (and there are a lot of us) with open arms when Linda and Mike got married. We have spent many holidays and family occasions together over the years. We will miss her but know that she is being reunited with those who have gone before her.

    • CandleImageOh Kathy,

      Now you have me teary-eyed. Thank you so much for all you do for us. You know she loved the entire Whitener clan! I’m so grateful that our two families became one as they did. I think she and your Dad (aka “Oma” and “Archie”) are getting caught up on their shenanigans again. I also think our Moms celebrated their first Heavenly Mother’s Day together.

      Mom will be missed very much!!

      Love you my dear sister (in-law).

  2. CandleImageBeing the first granddaughter of Hilde and John is an honor. She always held me to a very high standard and wanted the best for me. Living in Oklahoma all of my life I remember going to Mississippi for a week or so and spending it with nana and Pawpaw and have amazing memories until I started getting home sick and wanting to stay home around the age of 8. Nana was a very strong woman and very stubborn and I know I have some of those traits and got them from her. I am so grateful for the woman I am and I know I owe this in part to her. I will miss my conversations with her but I know that if I ever do get married as she so wished for me to before she passed she will still be with me during that time in my life because she will forever be in my heart. Nana I hope I can continue to be the woman and grand daughter that you will continue to be proud of me in heaven. Love you so much!! 💚💚💚💚

    • Sheree,

      I am so glad that you called and was able to talk to Nana one last time. I’m sure she heard you. She did love you very much. I know they had a great time when you went to Mississippi over the summers.

      Love You,
      Aunt Linda

  3. Kim and I are praying for you and your family. You are very dear to us. Clearly your mom lived a full life and overcame some significant events during her lifetime. May God bless you with strength and comfort.

    • Phil and Kim,

      Thank you so much for your post. My Mom did see a lot in her 97 years. Y’all were always so welcoming when they came to visit in Florida.

      Love you all,
      Linda

    • Shannon,

      Thank you very much! I could not have made it through this time without you and AlevCare.

      Thank you to all that assisted us!
      Linda

  4. CandleImageSeeing Hilde and John every Sunday was a delight. Hilde said what she thought, and meant what she said. Her opinions were never a secret, and that’s one of the things I loved about her. We had some of the most wonderful conversations. I will never forget her.

    • Thank you Ms. Schulz for your message.
      You are exactly right, you always knew where you stood with her. She was an amazing woman. I hope I have some of her traits and can age as gracefully as she did.

      I know she loved the congregation at church.

      Thanks for taking the time to put a message out here.

  5. An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a friend who has been doing a little research on this. And he in fact bought me breakfast due to the fact that I discovered it for him… lol. So let me reword this…. Thank YOU for the meal!! But yeah, thanx for spending some time to discuss this subject here on your internet site.

  6. I also believe that mesothelioma is a uncommon form of cancer malignancy that is generally found in those previously familiar with asbestos. Cancerous cells form while in the mesothelium, which is a safety lining that covers a lot of the body’s internal organs. These cells commonly form in the lining in the lungs, tummy, or the sac which encircles the heart. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

  7. Hola! I’ve been following your web site for a while now and finally got the bravery to go ahead and give you a shout out from Huffman Tx! Just wanted to mention keep up the excellent job!

  8. With everything which appears to be building within this subject material, many of your opinions are generally somewhat exciting. On the other hand, I appologize, but I can not subscribe to your entire plan, all be it radical none the less. It would seem to me that your remarks are generally not totally validated and in reality you are generally your self not really wholly convinced of your assertion. In any event I did enjoy reading through it.

  9. I have observed that over the course of building a relationship with real estate managers, you’ll be able to come to understand that, in every real estate deal, a commission is paid. Finally, FSBO sellers never “save” the commission rate. Rather, they try to earn the commission by means of doing a agent’s occupation. In accomplishing this, they devote their money and time to complete, as best they’re able to, the tasks of an real estate agent. Those jobs include getting known the home by marketing, offering the home to prospective buyers, developing a sense of buyer desperation in order to make prompt an offer, preparing home inspections, managing qualification check ups with the mortgage lender, supervising fixes, and assisting the closing of the deal.

  10. Hi there, I found your site via Google while searching for a related topic, your web site came up, it looks good. I’ve bookmarked it in my google bookmarks.
