1937 - 2025
Frances Eileen Hilderbrand (Delabar), 87, passed away February 7, 2025 at Kobacker House in Columbus. Eileen was born December 5, 1937 in Wheelersburg, Ohio to the late Albert and Marie (Schwamberger) Delabar . In addition to her parents, Eileen was preceded in death by her husband, James Hilderbrand. Eileen is survived by two daughters, Ann (Niels) Braam of Columbus and Theresa (Steve) Rasmussen of Glenview, IL; a sister, Alberta Scherer of Portsmouth; and grandchildren Finn, Annika and Luke Braam, and Jamie, Charlie and Stella Rasmussen.
Eileen was a wonderful wife, mother, daughter, sister, and neighbor. But her absolute favorite title and the joy of her life was being grandma to her six grandchildren. Over the past 19 years, she spent much of her time attending countless baseball and softball games, dance recitals, soccer and volleyball games, cross country meets, and many school functions with them. Nothing brought her more joy or made her more proud than seeing those six grandkids and spending as much time with them as possible. She was also a loyal fan of the Buckeyes and her beloved Cincinnati Reds. She will be dearly missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 1pm on Tuesday, February 11, 2025 at St. Peter in Chains Catholic Church in Wheelersburg, Ohio with Fr. Smith officiating. Interment will follow at St. Peter’s Cemetery. Family will receive friends and family at St. Peter in Chains Catholic Church from 11am-1pm on Tuesday, February 11. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions be made in Eileen’s name to Kobacker House at 3430 Ohio Health Parkway, Columbus, OH 43202 or the following link: Ohio Health Kobacker House. Condolences may be made to the family at www.harrison-pyles.com.

Eileen was one of the very best neighbors. She treated us and our children like family and we will greatly miss the lovely conversations we used to have. Our lives were blessed in so many ways because of her. Ann and Theresa, we pray for comfort for you and your families and are so sorry for your loss. May God comfort you all as only He can.

Ann,Theresa, your families, and Alberta; we are sorry to hear of your mother's/sister's passing. She was a wonderful neighbor and a truly special person. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all during this difficult time. Just a short story of something we always remember your mom/sister doing. We moved in the house next door to your mom/sister 15 years ago and she was one of the first people to introduce herself by bringing us dinner (lasagna, salad and Pine Nut Club salad dressing, that she insisted was the best!). We will never forget her kind gesture. We will always remember her kind, caring spirit.

Ann & Theresa and families: We are out of town and won't be able to attend your mom's funeral, but wanted you to know how sorry we are for her loss. She was a wonderful neighbor and friend and really cared about others. It was a privilege knowing her and your dad for over 40 years!
