MILDRED HIND

Private funeral was held today for Mildred S. Hind, a retired nurse and longtime Marin resident.

Mrs. Hind, 79, died Saturday at a local hospital following a long illness. At the time of her death she resided at 212 Elm Street in Mill Valley.

A native of California, Mrs. Hind was reared in the Bay area and then moved to the Hawaiian Islands.

She was the widow of the late Renton Hind, who died about 20 years ago.

For many years she worked as a nurse on a sugar plantation which she and her husband owned in the Philippines. During World War II, they were interned for three years in a Japanese prison camp in the Philippines.

At the end of the war, Hind retired, and they moved to Marin County.

Burial will also be private at Nauanu Cemetery in Honolulu.
