The Beautiful Eyes of Hattie

She’ll always be our family’s valedictorian of sight… For She was the no nonsense type of woman who gave all of her love and insight to the world… That was her gift, her sight and God’s sun that shinned through her… known as the light. Hattie is our family’s pillar of strength; Our educator of many lessons learned… The type… Who’d go the extra mile, the width, the distance and length; in insuring our family’s security, history, legacy; as well as other lesson’s passed down through the years …and now she leaves us with a scale from one… right down to her last lesson of the tenth. And As We come together as a family in the memories of Hattie… We’ve all come to the conclusions of being blessed in having our own personal relationships with her that was meant to be; and with that in mind… Her eyes of beauty will always shine through and within us; for all to remember and see. And now that She’s looking down upon us proudly… she’s happy to have engraved her individual and personal memories down within your hearts, minds and souls. For This is the biggest lesson that she leaves behind; her own personal legacies of personal stories with you to cherish; her own personal touch for which she alone and personally chose. And now, The heavens have opened up for Hattie and now she’s received her wings; with the angels rejoicing and singing. Can’t you all see? For this is what she envisioned her legacy, vision and happiness of memories with you to be; A wonderful spirit of the wise With the glimpse of looking through her eyes, so you can see Her touch of class that will never die… And lastly, “THE BEAUTIFUL EYES OF HATTIE”.
