Tiny and I started to school together in 1946 and graduated together in 1958. She was a wonderful person and always nice to be around. She always took part in the class plays and activities. She will be missed by all. May God Bless you all that took care of her in the last days on this earth. Your love shows greatly.

Tiny has been a friend since their wedding, but we have both known Harold since we were children, I (Joan) walked to the one room Walker School with Harold and later both Howard and I went to MH School with him. We even double dated with Harold. We attended church with them, and especially remember Tiny's decorated cakes. To her sisters, Lu and Pat, it was so good of you to come here and help take care of her for so long.
Our sympathy to the whole family.

My family went to church with Harold and Tiny at the old Walker Road Church of Christ for many years. They were wonderful people and set a warm, loving example for their family and friends in the way they lived their lives. I hadn't seen Tiny in several years, but I see she still had that same sweet smile that I remember! My condolences to all the family.

What an honor it was to be a small part of Hazels journey. I loved getting to know Hazel in the small amount of time I had with her. I will remember her for her love of her family and the love they gave back to her. Pat Joe and Shannon I will keep you close in my prayers. May God surround you with loving memories and quiet moments of peace and strength.

Alisa and family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mom has been in many prayer lists for several months. She's no longer in pain and already walking the streets of gold!
