Mrs. Hazel Hinton Watkins daughter of the late William and Blonnie Hinton was 
born on June 19, 1911 in Wake County.  She departed this life on Wednesday 
September 10, 1980 at Wake Medical Center Raleigh, North Carolina.

At an early age she accepted Jesus Christ as her personal Saviour and was a 
former member of Malaby's Cross Road Baptist Church.  Later she became 
affilated with the New Bethel United Church of Christ in Raleigh where she 
remained a faithful member and missionary unil death.

She married to Berry Watkins and to this union six children were born.  She 
was a devoted wife and loving mother.  Her door was always open to her family, 
friends and neighbors with a kind word and an open heart.  She was never to 
busy to lend a helping hand to anyone in need.  Her faith and strength in God 
helped her to endure all things along life's path.

The Rose in our garden will be greatly missed.  She leaves to mourn:  a
