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
