Softly, peacefully I have begun my new journey in life, death.

I join my beloved husband, Ronald Hatfield, whose family made me family. I also join my sisters Beulah Mae Tallman Hansen, Barbara Jean Tallman House (whose children and grandchildren I love as my own), mother Beulah Gretchen Matheny Tallman, and dad Emery Jay Tallman.

God’s blessing to my beautiful son James Jay Tallman, his wife Mara, and my grandchildren Crisha and Mathew.

I loved life. I enjoyed and learned from each life that touched mine, from a one-time smile to my lifelong friends. Untethered, I fly free in God’s creation. Farewell, until we meet again.
