  Notes	Great grandma Hilker was a frail woman even in my earliest memory. She lived with my grandpa and grandma Simonsen throughout her widowhood. When she became advanced in years and could no longer easily make the trip to church each Sunday, she would put on her best purple dress, come downstairs and listen to church services on the radio until we returned home from our church service. When I was seven, she gave me my first Bible, carefully inscribed with her name. She died when I was 15 and perhaps because I cared for her, but was not as close to her as my grandparents, it was a perfect way to be introduced to the process of the end of life. I recall her bedroom in my grandparents home quite well. It was simple and tidy. On the dresser was a photograph of her husband, my great grandfather, Adolph Hilker, whom I never met. He looked to me to be a large robust man with the most marvelous mustache. And she was such a tiny thing. They must have been an interesting couple.
