What a wonderful woman. She was a great Mom to her own kids and had enough love and patience left over for several of us stray kids who spent lots of time hanging around her home. Rest In Peace.

Words seem inadequate at times like this however; I believe the Lord has a new angel in heaven that is watching over the Hyde family so, hold tight to your memories for comfort an lean on your friends and God for strength.
