Dear Haught Family, Sending my heartfelt condolences to your precious family. I was ever so saddened to hear of Shirley's health challenges and her passing yesterday. I am a distant cousin through my grandmother Della Flo Molisee Bennett. I never got the privilege of meeting Shirley face to face although we had talked on the phone numerous times and conversed through cards and letters. I have had health problems for the past several years but was hoping so this would be the summer I would be able to travel to visit Shirley and her family. She loved her family so very much and shared about them when we talked. I treasured our phone conversations, her letters and cards. At one point few years back she was so kind and gracious to sent me copies of records of our Molisee family line for which I will be eternally grateful. She and I talked a lot about her husband after his passing for she missed him so very much. Praise the LORD JESUS she is now with him never to be parted again. The scriptures say, "To be absent from the body is to be present with LORD". Love and prayers. Your Distant Cousin Margaret Bennett Jones
