Hilda Louise Hartman Brast, age 92, passed away Saturday, Aug. 16, 2014, at Colonial Belle Nursing Home in Bellville.

Hilda was born April 1, 1922, in Cat Spring, the eldest daughter of Carl and Louise Brast Hartman. She grew up in Cat Spring attending the Cat Spring School and shared with the family farming duties.

She married Amandus Brast on Feb. 6, 1942, and they farmed together for many years and also was a homemaker.

Hilda saw many hard times during her lifetime and would recall how difficult it was to travel back and forth to school having to walk sometimes as much as 8 miles. She was very conservative and learned how to survive on the small things in life. During her adult life, she worked very long hours each day helping with farming duties as well as gardening, canning, sewing and cooking.

Hilda is survived by her daughter Denise Lange and son-in-law, Randy, of Frydek, grandson, Everett Lange and wife, Kirby, great grandsons, Grady Lange, and Grant Bubela, all of El Campo. She is also survived by one brother, Carl “Charlie” Hartman and wife, Leatrice, of Cat Spring, and sister-in-law, Gladys Hartman, and numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents, brothers Edmund and Willie Hartman, and sister Waldine Richard.

Visitation was held at Knesek Funeral Home, 842 East Main, Bellville, Texas, on Tuesday, Aug. 19 beginning at 9:30 a.m with funeral services at 10:30 a.m. Interment followed at Cat Spring Cemetery.
