Hilda Marie Hento was born July 11, 1913 in rural Avon, SD, the daughter of William and Jennie (Risseeuw) Hento. She died Sunday, November 15, 2009 at the Good Samaritan Society in Tyndall, SD. Hilda attained the age of 96 years, four months and four days.
Hilda attended the Trumbo School of rural Avon for eight years. After that, she became her Dad's right hand farm girl until she married Henry Adema on February 21, 1935 on the Hento family homestead in rural Avon. They resided on a farm seven miles west of Springfield, near Perkins, until they moved to Springfield in 1983, when they retired. They were married for 71 years.
Hilda was a member of the Emmanuel Reformed Church, where she taught Sunday School for many years. She was also active in Ladies Aid and Guild, where she held many offices.
Hilda loved her family and cooking and baking for them gave her great joy. We also know that each family household has or had many towels and pillowcases that she had embroidered, with love in each thread. She also loved to babysit the Pudwill girls and Yule boys. Hilda was a "grandma" to many children in Springfield. Hilda also loved her garden and her green thumb produced many vegetables and flowers.
Thankful for having shared her life are her children: Jim (Clarice) of Mitchell; Mel (Norma) of Sioux City, IA; Don (Jan) of Winthrop, MN; Joyce (Gary) Diede of Utica; and Joann Tucker and fiance Ron Minten of Alton, IA; sister, Irene Schneider and two special nieces: Nancy Hixon and Norene Gibson, all of Springfield; 24 grandchildren; 60 great grandchildren; 9 great-great grandchildren and a host of other family and friends.
Hilda was preceded in death by her husband, Henry on October 14, 2006; parents; two sons: Harold and Wilbur; son-in-law, Jerry Tucker; granddaughter, Erica Tucker and a sister, Marie Biesma.
