Dear Dyer Family,

I am devastated to hear of Harriet's passing! She was such a kind and compassionate person! There were many times she took time out to comfort me when my father past. She made the best cookies and mint ice tea ever! She never got upset with us neighbors hanging out from dawn to dusk at her house. We were always there!! Jeff and Diane entertaining us while she was at work; such as firework shows, talent shows, listening to Jeff play drums, playing school, transforming the garage to a fun house and using an entire jar of peanut butter. Not any other mother would have allowed this, but she was the cool mother. I was impressed she kept up with technology as well. I believe she was on Facebook before any other mother. She was my second Mom to me growing up on That Circle. She always welcomed our family in her home including Penny Lou. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time. Heaven certainly has an Angel that's for sure and more flowers are being planted because of her.
