Notes for Hulda Christiansen
Her obituary from the April 19, 2012 Modesto Bee835 reads:
Hulda Christiansen, Mar 13, 1917 - Apr 15, 2012
Hulda was born on Christofferson Road near Turlock and moved shortly thereafter to what was to become the family home for the next 95 years on Carpenter and Grayson, where she died Sunday.
She was a graduate of Jones School, Ceres HS, MJC, and Santa Barbara State College before teaching three years in Goleta and one year in San Bernardino, then entering Claremont Graduate School to work on an administrative credential in education. In WWII, she organized entertainment for the USO in Honolulu and at Herlong Ordnance Depot near Reno before beginning a career in finance/accounting with the U.S. State Department's Foreign Service, during which time she was posted to Ecuador, Philippines, Mexico City, Greece, Afghanistan, Washington, DC, Haiti, Bolivia, Southern Rhodesia, Sweden, Bulgaria, Ivory Coast, Costa Rica, Iceland, and Nigeria.
After retiring, she cared for her parents and brother and started new careers in real estate and almond farming.
She is predeceased by parents Frederick and Kirsten Christiansen and brothers Carl, Arne, and James Christiansen of Modesto.
She is survived by sisters Thelma Couchman (Hurley) of Modesto and Lilian Eaton of Galt; sisters-in-law Evelyn Christiansen of Modesto and Alma Deiparinae Christiansen of Turlock; nieces Carole Beyers (Jack) of Danville, Arlene Webb (Fred) of Waterford, Christine Eaton (Dan Culhane) of San Luis Obispo, Sarah Dove (Duane) of Santa Rosa, Rebecca Eaton of Galt, Rebecca Harrison (David) of San Jose, Rachel Eaton (Rico Balatti) of Concord; nephews David Christiansen (Fran) and Jon Christiansen of Modesto, Michael Eaton (Charity Kenyon) of Galt, Richard Eaton (Toni) of Carmichael, Jonathan Couchman (Dorita Robinson) of Modesto, Mark Couchman (Mona) of Sonoma, and David Couchman (Mary) of Modesto; more than three dozen grandnieces, grandnephews, great-grandnieces and great-grandnephews.
