Hobart Wells

The passing of Hobie Wells leaves a sadness in my heart for one of my favorite people in Madison. Many memories during the high school years that I shared with his daughter Kathy and the young and older adult years after that point. Condolences to all of his family. He lived a long and wonderful life. From Sandy (Adler) Stevenson

A very special man. I enjoyed knowing him and listening to his political comments and bad jokes. He always had a hug for me and wanted to know about our lives. He will be missed. Linda Kovacs

I worked with Hobie at Borden's in the '60s. Hobie used to sneak up behind people and bark like a dog...and scare the daylights out of them. He was a fun person to be around. I remember when he got bit by a dog while delivering milk to a home. That dog did a real job on his arm. Bon voyage, my friend. Jim Mueller

The picture is from Hobie's Honor Flight, where we had a wonderful time with family and with Hobie when he landed on their return. I will always remember him as a wonderful man with a great smile. Like Grandma Joyce and Aunt Pat, we will miss him, but I just have to picture him to see that big smile again.

To the family of Hobie Wells - My name is Trish Pulvermacher and although I haven't met any of you I have met and remember your parents. Your father and my father(Al Smith) used to work together at Bordens Dairy Co.! My dad used to talk about Hobie and how nice he was. On occasion my parents would comment that they had gotten together with some of the former employees from Bordens. I am very sorry to hear that he has passed away. I also did not know that your mother, Doris had also passed away. I did see them a few years back at a birthday party for a common friend that we have, Celoris Hinz. Again, I am sorry for your loss.
