Strengthening our Community and World for Generations to Come
The Hattiesburg Area Habitat for Humanity family & friends honor the memory of Mr. Earl Watson, Jr. our beloved Construction Supervisor and friend.

WE WILL DEFINITELY MISS HIM!

       

"He was a great member of our staff...A lot of the staff called him 'Pop,' and volunteers usually ended up calling him 'Uncle Earl,' ... He was loved by everyone who came out to work with him."

A memorial service was held on Friday, June 13, 2008 at Dixie United Methodist Church in Hattiesburg for Earl E. Watson, Jr. who died June 7, 2008 in Jackson, MS.  More than 90 people came to show their love for Earl and his family.

The family has requested that in lieu of flowers, monetary donations can be made to Mrs. Margaret Watson in c/o Hattiesburg Area HFH at P.O. Box 1092, Hattiesburg, MS 39403 or contributions can be made in memory of Earl Watson, Jr. to Hattiesburg Area HFH at P.O. Box 1092, Hattiesburg, MS 39403.

Hattiesburg Area Habitat for Humanity, an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, has been helping low-income families build and own their own homes since 1990. Under the direction of a volunteer Board of Directors, Hattiesburg Area Habitat works in partnership with low-income families to build affordable, decent housing in Forrest and Lamar counties, and in the city of Hattiesburg based on the principles of the Theology of the Hammer.

Without the help of our generous donors and volunteers, we could not bring the dream of a decent, affordable home to families in need. You can participate in this worldwide effort to solve the low-income housing crisis.

Volunteers are always needed at Habitat. Use skills you already have, or learn new skills by helping to build a Habitat home, working in the office, assisting with fundraising events or on a committee. Habitat works because of the commitment of its volunteers, businesses and organizations in the community.

For more information on how you, your corporation, church or community organization can become a part of Hattiesburg Area Habitat for Humanity please contact us at: 601-582-HOME or email: info@HattiesburgHabitat.org.

What is the Theology of the Hammer?

Hattiesburg Area HFH is a United Way agency.
