Hilda Millicent Hart (Fyvie) 1902 - 1988
as I recall

Hilda, as I remember her as I grew older, was a practical person hard working and a good gardener. She was one of the more outgoing members of the Fyvie family and enjoyed the Howick community where she lived, and was an active member of the W.I. (Woman's Institute) She was good at handwork and played the piano. She taught piano lessons and was a busy person. I am told that as a young girl, Granny Fyvie used to call her from the beach when on holiday and she had to come up early to iron all the starched dresses belonging to her younger siblings! Everyone in the family was allocated a job of work. Temple Fyvie allocated work to his sons on the farm which had to be completed on Sundays, before any parties or frivolity!
