My Uncle Hugo was a wonderful hardworking man. Always loved it when his stories would start with “by the by”. He had a super memory. Could remember dates event took place plus remember time of day it was in addition to weather conditions. Pretty amazing. He was loved and will be missed by his family and by his surviving sister Norma.
I remember visiting Uncle Hugo as a child, when he lived with Uncle John. Daddy and I would take Aunt Tracy, John’s sister, to visit about once a month. Can still see the pot-bellied stove in the parlor and the wood cook stove that Aunt Tracy would use. The cistern fascinated me. Uncle Hugo loved his family. Rest in peace, your work here is complete. Love, Cindy
