Dearest Cousins:
A laborer in the vineyard has passed on to the place of many mansions. I know Cousin Hazel is at peace. If we believe, we shall see her again in all her splendor. This is a difficult time for all of us but God has sent the Comforter and in time we all shall be restored. Amen

Good memories and sweet stories -- 1971 was a great year at Hugh M. Cummings. Mr. Freeman, our principal and Ms. Poteat, our guidance counselor. School integration not long started and the Lord put them in our lives. She guided many of us growing up. She was there always smiling. She nurtured us. Wishing the family the Blessing of memories and the comfort of love each time you remember.

Truly life is the greatest gift that God has given us. Death is only a bridge towards eternal life with God. We thank Him for the presence of Ms Poteat having been in our life growing up. She encouraged us not just by her words as an educator, but by her fine example. Be proud family for she has left you a treasure of memories and our deepest love for her. God bless you all! Praying for your continued strength in the Lord during this time of bereavement.
