To the Hyde family,
I met Alma during her temporary home in Garrett Indiana after her home was damaged by Katrina. She was a kind and gracious woman who loved to share her stories and her custard! Being around her was like viewing a different part of the country and various time eras. She was always looking for others comfort. I am happy to have met such a wonderful lady. The life and legacy she left behind will carry on with all of you. God Bless all of you, Corine, too

Dear Hyde Girls,
I am so very sorry for your loss. Your mom was so good to me. She
made my wedding dress and my mom's
wedding outfit out of the goodness
and kindest of her heart.
She was loved by many whom she helped.
I know she is with the Lord and
is in his glory.
May God speed through this process and
may the wonderful memories be forever
in your hearts.
Love,
Linda Airhart Robertson

Dear Lela,
You are in our thoughts and prayers. We are happy that your mother lived a long full life. To loose a mother at any age creates a large void, We know this from our own experience.

Love and Friendship.
Carol & Scott.

I was so very sorry to learn of the death of Mrs. Hyde and my prayers are with you at this time. She was a wonderful person and a great neighbor. One of the things I remember most was when I first bought my house and had so much work to do, she took me under her wing and invited me over for Sunday dinner to make sure that I had a good meal. She raised three wonderful daughters and I know all of her family will miss her dearly. I'm sure she is at peace with the Lord.
