Hildreth Mae Sessions

Hildreth Mae Sessions, age 87, of Nederland, passed away Saturday morning, June 27th. She passed peacefully in her sleep at the home of her son and daughter-in-law, Tommy and Donna Sessions, where she was cared for and loved for the past 7 1/2 years.

She was born December 13th, 1927 to Gustave and Cecile Lagarosse and raised in Port Sulphur, LA. In 1945 she married Marine Paratrooper, Thomas W. Sessions Jr., and moved to Port Acres, Tx. Known by family and friends as Pete and Pat Sessions, they moved to Kirbyville, TX in the early 1980's and resided there until Pete's death in 2002. She is also preceded in death by her son; Victor Gale Sessions, of Port Arthur, TX.

She was such a southern belle and a genuine lady. Her beauty, class, and grace has never went unnoticed and will never be forgotten. It is said that true love never dies and having been married to the same man for 57 years, their love story will live on forever. She was treated with dignity, love, and respect up until the very end as she said goodbye to her beloved son, Thomas W. Sessions III and his devoted wife, Donna Sessions.

She is also survived by six grandchildren; Kimberly Sessions Carter, Casey Sessions, Amanda Sessions, Kara Sessions McCaw, Brandon Sessions, Blake Sessions, eight great grandchildren and two great great grandchildren.
