I AM WITH You STILL
Obituary
I give you this one thought to keep I am with you still-do not weep.
Hazel Rowe Smith was born April 15, 1934 in Fayetteville, Ga. She was the second of 14 children born
to Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Rowe (Myrtice Wilder).
I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
She remained in East Point, GA until her sunset on September 15, 2011. She was a dedicated employee of Fulton County Board of Education until she retired.
I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the morning's hush,

She is preceded in homegoing by her son Marvin Woodard, grandson Antonio Woodard, and siblings, Marverneen Stanley, Edward Rowe, Barbara Williams, Jacqueline Crutchfield, and Phyllis Gresham.
Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as goneI am with you still-in each new dawn.
She is survived by her children, Edward White (Mary), Gloria Smith-Reid(George), Rufus Smith, Douglas
