Hatton Center members extend a thank you and farewell to Shirley Chapman who worked at the center for three years. Cynthia Kirby who served as assistant to the director and worked at Hatton for eight years as a good, reliable and trusted worker and friend has decided to retire and we will miss her. We wish Cindy and Shirley good health and much happiness.
