Myrtle's Aunt Hilda


This is a picture of Myrtle's Auntie Hilda ( circa 1940 )
Auntie Hilda lived at the Courthouse in Mayor Smiths Office.
Hilda was Mayor Smiths typist and Girl Possum Friday.
Mayor Smith really like Hilda because She could type faster than any Human Secretary. She used both hands and Her tail.
Mayor Smith dictated very fast and only Hilda could keep up on the typewriter with Him. They often would take a break and relax, Hilda liked to sit on Mayor Smiths Shoes during breaktime. ( see picture )
Hilda worked at the courthouse for 20 years all during Mayor Smiths tenure. Finally after Mayor Smith retired, Hilda retired too and Moved to Boca Raton in Florida to be with Her Granchildren, all 50 of them.
She currently is in an Old Folks Home, enjoying Her Golden Years. Myrtle and I plan on visiting Auntie Hilda this Spring. Myrtle loves looking through Her old Family history Pictures, She has a lot of time to look now since She is Still recovering from Her Dog bite.
This is one of Her Favorites. She has a lot of Auntie Hilda in Her, Because She likes to sit on my shoes when we relax in front of the Fireplace.
More Family history Later
Sincerely
Myrtle's Father
