Fond memories, and good times. A good friend that will always be remembered.
We will always remember Hazel for her warmth, humor and kindness. We were fortunate to get to know her when she married our good friend Artis Pinkerton and we are grateful that she came into his life and ours. We enjoyed many visits with her over the last several years and we will miss her very much.
I wish to express my sincere thoughts to both you, Kathryn, and Linda and your families in the death of your Mother. I can remember many good times with your family.
