This is my mother's biography as best as I can tell it based on the many hours of interviews and discussions conducted in 2014, 2016, 2019 and 2020. In her memoir, she's telling her story to her family, friends and all those who have received her cards, letters, emails and texts which she signed, "Peace, Love and Harmony, Hazel".
If you get the opportunity to interview an elder, learn from their mistakes and their triumphs. Walk in their strength, rest in their being. Embrace them as a child, a teen, young adult, and mature, wise adult.
Here is the story of Hazel Martina Whitaker Thomas filled with peace, love, and harmony. In addition to a little drama, plus a whole lot of attitude - because that's just who she is!
