Bill and Betty,
I just heard of your mother's passing. I am so sorry. She sounds like a wonderful mother and grandmother, friend and neighbor. I know you and the rest of her family and friends will miss her a lot. May God give you peace and comfort at this time and strengthen your walk with Him.

We were so sorry to hear of Hazel's death. She was a dear neighbor. Many times as we took our walk she would come out to talk with us. A couple of years ago they were gone when we returned from a few months away & we were told she had passed away then by neighbors. We have missed her & Marvin.
