Dear Family, Harriette was one of the nicest, gentlest, giving people I ever met. She was one of my favorite clients, I was her hairdresser for many years, but knew her more as a friend who's hair I did every week.While reading her obituary, it doe not surprise me that she continued to help people, no matter where she what her situation.
God Bless you all
Sherry and bob

There are so many memories of your mother having her hair done by my mom. She has been someone that many have tried to be like, but have failed.
God has blessed all of us who have had an opportunity to know her, may He bless each of you at this time.
She will be missed.

Dear Wooster Family, I am so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing, she was my teacher at the Amsden one room school. She was a neat lady and a great influence on my life. I was able to visit with her a couple of years ago when we was back in Michigan. If I could, I would be there, but know that your family is in our prayers. . .
