Monticello, AR Saturday, November 30, 2013 Mrs. Molly and Mr. Larry, we are so sorry to hear of Eric's passing and that we are out of town at this time. You have been such wonderful neighbors and friends to all the Hatley family and we are grieving along with you and for you. All of you, including Eric, were so supportive recently when we lost our mother, Earlene Hatley, and our brother, Gary Hatley. We could never thank you enough, but Mrs. Molly, I know you would say "that's just what neighbors do". There are so many great memories we all have of Eric, one pretty funny one that Byron tells about Eric is when he was helping "Mr. RV" catch chickens and he ended up at the wrong end of the chicken as she was trying to take flight. Needless to say, Eric went running to Mrs. Earlene begging her to help him clean that stuff off of him! Joking aside, Eric was the kind of neighbor that was always there to help anytime around the farm and he was dearly loved by all the Hatley family. Until we meet again Eric........Love to you all,
Byron, Rhonda, Jared and Hilary Hatley
