| Notes: | At the time of the April 11, 1940 U.S. Census, Judith Ann was 2 years old and living with her parents and her younger |
| brother Joseph in Foley Village, Benton, Minnesota in a home they rented for $20/month.
Her father was employed as the Editor and Manager of a weekly newspaper; he worked 60 hours a week for 52 weeks in 1939, earning $1,080. Her mother was employed as a reporter at
the same weekly newspaper, working 10 hours a week for 13 weeks in 1939 and earning $180. Her mother stated that she had completed high school through the 10th grade, and that
her husband was a high school graduate. Lodging with the Hall family was Edwin Winkleman, age 21, a high school graduate who was employed as a linotype operator at the newspaper. He worked 54 hours a week
for 52 weeks in 1939, earning $720. Her parents had been living in the same place in April 1935, but Edwin had lived elsewhere in Benton County at that time.
Judy, a.k.a. "Jude" was married for 40 years to Joseph Pilmaier, the mother of 5 children and the grandmother of 15. She liked to play bridge, Scrabble and do crossword puzzles. Her ability to play Scrabble and do crosswords was astounding to me. She read an incredible number of books and really knew words, much to the dismay of whoever happened to be her opponent in Scrabble or Trivial Pursuit. She had a wonderful laugh and had been told by a German one time that she "laughed from the heart." When I was in plays in high school, I always knew where my mom was sitting when I was on stage because I could hear her laugh. She was a devout Catholic and all 5 of her children attended Catholic school. When she graduated later in life with an Associate Degree in Health Information Management from the College of St. Marys in Omaha she considered it one of her proudest accomplishments. She died very suddenly and unexpectedly on November 18, 1995. -- as told by Kathy Langdon, Nov. 26, 1998 Dick Kampa reminisces on the Hall family: "Our family lived in Omaha right after WWII and would get together with the Halls for dinner now and then. Ann and my dad were cousins. Later as a teen I too became a ham radio operator and might have gotten the inspiration from seeing Don Hall talk to other hams on his radio. Terry must have been a toddler then. Joe and I were just a year apart - I was 7 and he was 8 years old - and we got along well. Judy was older and I just remember her as a nice older sister. Ann's hearty laugh was just like that of my aunt Pauline Robinson. Seems like that was an inherited characteristic which my dad shared, he could work up a good guffaw when he found something funny or silly" (from a Sept. 15, 2008 e-mail). |
