Bucky, Hildgund, 1924 – 2012 Founder “Hildgund at Dawkins Benny Jewelers”, Hildgund

Bucky, affectionately known as “Hildy” a long time resident of Honolulu for over six decades,

peacefully passed away in her home on July 19, 2012 at the age of 88. Hildgund was born in

Ludwigshafen, Germany on July 13, 1924. She started her education in jewelry and design, in

Vienna and Mannheim. The art schools were closed until the end of the war, so the only chance

of completing her education was to attend the trade school in Kaiserslautern at the Masters of

Jewelry. In 1944 she graduated with a degree as a journeyman goldsmith in the midst of air raids.

After the war she worked at the American Red Cross in a resort town where the soldiers had R

and R activities including arts and crafts. She had her tools and the family sterling she rescued

from her home that was destroyed in the bombings. She used the silver to make rings for the

soldiers with their initials and traded a carton of cigarettes for a ring. At that Red Cross she met

and fell in love with her first husband, Arthur Joseph Weeks, a handsome Hawaiian soldier. They

married on August 28, 1948 and with nerve, courage and some trepidation she started her

journey to Hawaii. Fortunately soon after arriving in Hawaii she was able to get employment at

McKinley High School teaching an evening class in arts and crafts and textile painting. Hildgund

traveled to Lanai once every two weeks to conduct a three hour class. She also had a home

workbench made by her father-in-law and worked for Gump’s until the store closed. Then she

found full time employment at Ming’s. At that time Ming’s only worked with ivory and sterling

silver. Her boss, Mr. Moon got some pearls, jade and gave her carte blanc to created rings,

earrings, and broaches in 14K gold. After seven years she began a fascination with black coral

and used it with the pearls and jade in rings and pins. While still working at Ming’s in 1959 her

husband, Arthur, died in a drowning accident at the age of 33 leaving Hildgund with two little

girls, Malulani and Laola. She went to work for Maui Divers and after several years there, she

opened a small shop in the Merchandise Mart Building in downtown Honolulu, known as

Hildgund of Hawaii with her partner and fellow war bride Edith Park. She married Jack

Zukerkorn during this time and had a son, Alan in 1964. She divorced Jack after four years and

continued to build her business. She purchased the Dawkins & Benny Co., established in 1873,

in 1969 and renamed it “Hildgund at Dawkins Benny.” They had contracts with Hawaiian

Telephone Co., many local businesses and schools for service pins and rings. She also made the

Hawaiian bracelets, rings and Hawaiian Coat of Arms jewelry. Her clientele were primarily

kamaaina. She had her workbench alongside five other jewelers at the store where she created

her one of kind designs. Her specialty was redesigning old jewelry into unique, modern pieces.

Customers would come in and explain what they wanted and she would draw it on paper for

them. From there she would create her master pieces. When Hildgund met Carl Bucky in 1977,

she asked him to help her expand the company. They were married in 1982. Together they built a

business that had five stores and an international reputation. They were partners in love, life and

business. Hildgund retired in 1995 and in their semi-retirement they traveled the world many

times over looking for Colored Gem. Carl died in 2002. Hildgund at Dawkins Benny is still

operating in 6 locations in Hawaii. She continued to live in their apartment with occasional trips

to visit her daughters in California and family in Europe. A loving mother and Omi, she is

survived by her daughters Malulani Eccleshall, Laola Simmons, and son Alan Zukerkorn;

stepsons Bruce and Paul Bucky; grandchildren Kalei, Keaka, Molly, Samantha and Asher; great

grandchildren Kamea, Mahina and Ryder. Hildgund was a gracious lady who cared deeply for

the Hawaiian people, their culture and history. She supported The Friends of ‘Iolani Palace. She

first saw the palace after the war while being occupied by the military. It was her dream to see it

returned to its original stature. Her kindness, integrity, courage, and compassion will be

remembered by everyone who knew her. She will be dearly missed and never forgotten. Special

thanks caregivers Gerhild Daida, Herta McGuire, Sue Gulledge, Nettie Tamale and Kim

Rodriguez who provided such loving care to our mother for many years and to Bristol Hospice,

Dr. Brett Flynn, Michelle Apana-Sargent, RN, and Mary Jane Miguel, CNA for providing

excellent hospice care during the last eight months. The memorial service and mass will be held

beginning at 9:30 a.m. mass at 11:00 a.m., burial to follow at National Memorial Cemetery of the
