Those we love don't go away, they walk beside us everyday. Unseen, unheard, but always near

I was privileged to work with Hazel during the late 90's when I was with the EMH Development Dept. She was a sharp, intelligent business woman.

We Shed Two (2) Tears
We shed the first tear when a child is born,
Then
The last tear for a friend's Sweet Farewell!!

We shed a tear, for a child, when they are born, for we know all the joy and sorrow they will have to live, a life that can be short or a life that can be 93 years long

We then shed a tear for a friend's sweet farewell, for a true friend is a rarity in Life!
Your Mother was a best friend to her family and for many others.So we say Farewell to a Friend and Your Mother!
We shed this tear for you,
Hazel Dear
