I will always remember Hattie's bright outlook, quick wit, loving charity, wisdom, the time that I spent with her at parties, reunions, family get-togethers and going to eat with her in Chinatown. I hope that she'll intercede for me so that I'll be with her for all eternity. Then I'll be able to have the time to visit with her, as I wish I would have in this life.



Not too many people make it to 102-years old, but if I do, I'd hope that I do it with as much class as she did.
