It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Hilda Cardenas, a beacon of love and kindness in our community. Hilda left this world on Tuesday, March 26, 2024, at age 60, surrounded by her loving family, leaving behind a legacy of warmth, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to the welfare of all her children.
Hilda was not only a teacher but a mentor, a second mother to many, whose generosity knew no bounds. Her passion for nurturing young minds led her to a fulfilling career as a Site Manager for Superior’s Head Start program, where she dedicated herself to the educational and emotional development of countless children. Hilda’s belief in the power of education was matched only by her love for books and reading, a passion she eagerly shared with those around her.
Beyond her professional life, Hilda was the heart of her family. Her love was as deep as the ocean, enveloping everyone she met. She had an extraordinary ability to make everyone feel special and loved, never forgetting a birthday, or missing an opportunity to give, even to those beyond her immediate circle. Hilda’s devotion to her family was unparalleled. She was a guiding light, a source of strength and comfort to her loved ones.
Her absence leaves a void that cannot be filled, but her memory will forever inspire us to live with kindness, to cherish our loved ones, and to embrace every opportunity to make a difference in the lives of others. As we say goodbye to Hilda, let us also celebrate the incredible impact she had on our lives and within the community. Her legacy of love, kindness, and generosity will continue to inspire those who knew her and those whose lives she touched indirectly.
We invite all who knew Hilda to join us in commemorating her remarkable life on Saturday, April 6, 2024, at Presbyterian Church of Superior, 100 N. Magma Ave., Superior, AZ 85173. Services will begin at 11 a.m.
Hilda Cardenas will be deeply missed but her spirit will live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her. Dearest Hilda, may you rest in peace knowing that your love continues to light the way for us all.
