Stephen Ernest Hildebran, 71, passed away Friday, November 3, 2023, at Mission Hospital McDowell. Born October 15th, 1952 he was the son of the late Virgil Ernest Hildebran Jr. and Ruth Wilamina Hildebran. He

He was a hard worker and was firm with his kids; he taught them right from wrong and how to survive. He loved boating, skiing, fishing, and he enjoyed riding motorcycles. He was adventurous and enjoyed taking his family camping. He loved his jokes and was a happy-go-lucky man but most importantly he was a devoted husband and father, who will be greatly missed.
