I first met Hilda early 1979 during the first year in my "Infant Stimulation" role. Little did I know how dear she and her family would become to me. She and Weston welcomed me when Jeffrey joined their family, and shared many drives to Sick Kids (HSC)for therapy enjoying long chats along the way. We learned so much together with this special little guy! I also had the privilege to visit other children fostered by Hilda and Weston, and by Hilda after her dear Weston passed away. Their own children wrapped around their foster children as well - this was an entire family welcoming so many little ones! 'Mommy Hilda' was also quick to offer to babysit my own daughters while I worked, feeding them the best food, getting toilet training moving, and magically getting them to nap without fuss - a baby whisperer of sorts.... knitting or rug hooking all the while. Hilda was a loving, outspoken advocate for the little ones! Her impact is everlasting and she will not be forgotten. With love, Nina, Ayla & Ariel
