He was a fine brother and a great uncle. Now he can rest and see Grannie and the rest of the family. Mere words cannot express the true feelings we have/had for him. We love you, Ezra. Hammond
You were the best Uncle I ever had.I do know you had NO children, so I will fix your obituary so the geneologists that follow you wont be to confused. Rest in Peace….
I LOVE YOU…..
Thank you Carrie Hibberts for keeping the geneologists straight. You are correct in saying he had NO children. He was my Uncle Ezzie through being my Dads brother. (Milton Fulghum) He was a great person and Aunt Blanche was a kind and loving person. I just came across this obituary and know that you have passed away now, but I hope one of your family members might read this. Thank you Carrie Hibberts family for having a honest and loving family member. I am sorry for your loss.
