Thelma had lived in the St. Paris area for more than 50 years, moving there 
following her Aug. 14, 1940, marriage to Robert Hughes. After leaving the area 
for a few years, they returned and bought a farm south of St. Paris in 1951. 
She lived there until Robert's death in 1998 when she moved to Otterbein.
Thelma is survived by two daughters, Karen (Frank) Brelsford of Columbia, Md. 
and Peggy (Charles) Huddleston of St. Marys; three grandsons; one 
granddaughter; and one great-granddaughter.
Thelma was so proud of her grandchildren, and liked to brag that she had three 
school teachers David and Keely Brelsford of Catonsville, Md., and Andrew 
Huddleston of St. Marys and four doctors chiropractors Rob and Jenny 
Huddleston of Ft. Loramie and pharmacists Jarrett and Carrie (Brelsford) 
Amsden of Noblesville, Ind. She adored her only great-grandchild, Amelia 
Brelsford, of Catonsville, Md.

Christiansburg. She loved to crochet and cook.
In addition to her daughters, Thelma also is survived by a sister, Mary
