March 5, 1926-May 26, 2014

Hilda Person Barwick Sanders, 88, High Point, passed away Monday, May 26, 2014, at Hospice Home at High Point.

The family will receive friends Wednesday, May 28, 2014, from 1 to 2 p.m. at Seymour Funeral Home in Goldsboro, N.C., followed by a graveside service at 2:30 p.m. in Willow Dale Cemetery.

Hilda is survived by her daughter, Becky Barwick Kornegay of Wilmington; sons, William Ray Barwick Jr. of Wanchese and Donald Craig Barwick and wife, Debbie, of High Point; sisters, Filie Nordon of Portsmouth, Va., and Juanita Aiello of Wilmington; six grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by her sister, Gladys Crumpler.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorials be given to Hospice Home at High Point, 1803 Westchester Drive, High Point, N.C., 27262.
