Research Notes:
HAZEL ELIZABETH BOBO EWING, 93, died December 10, 2009, at her residence. She
was born in Kennedy, Alabama, to Leslie Bobo and Elizabeth Howell Bobo, and
moved to Memphis at a young age. She had two brothers Howell Bobo and James
Bobo, both of whom have pre-deceased her. Hazel graduated from Memphis Central
High School in 1934. She and two of her classmates married brothers: Hazel
married Joseph Johnston Ewing, Addie Young married Hickman Ewing Sr., and
Lucile Doan married Bruce Ewing. Their sister Martha Louise Ewing married J.
Neale Payne. Hazel's husband Joe, whom she was married to for 50 years passed
from this life December 6, 1988. She is survived by a host of friends, and 10
nephews and nieces on the Ewing side of the family: Hickman Ewing Jr. (Mary),
John Ewing, Joe Ewing, Bob Ewing, Pepper Ewing, Maggie Hunter, Neale Payne Jr.
(Ann), Jim Payne (Sue), Bobby Ewing (Tootie), and Julia "Cookie" Ewing. She is
also survived by a number of cousins on her side of the family, with whom she
had a close relationship at different stages of her life; including: Anne
Batten (Glen), and her sons: Glen Batten Jr. (Megan), Curt Batten (Caroline),
Jon Batten (Jane), Andrew Batten (Stephanie); and cousin Martha Saliba (Mike),
and her children: Betsy McKinney (Eric Walton), Palmer Bartlett, Gray Bartlett
(Danielle), Hal Bartlett (Bekkah), and Neil Bartlett. Hazel worked as a
secretary and administrative assistant for many years, including time at the
First National Bank, and then at Holiday Inns in its early years. She
primarily worked in the legal department and had the opportunity to interact
with many of the early principals in that company. She and her husband Joe
spent many wonderful days at their cabin in Hardy, Arkansas. She was a unique
individual, possessed of a keen sense of humor. She was a faithful member of
the First Baptist Church of Memphis, first joining there in about 1925. She
was a longtime worker in the children's Sunday school and also taught in the
Laotian ministry. She was a member of the Radio Bible Class and the Baptist
Women (WMU). She loved the old hymns of the Christian faith. She was active in
the community working with and being a member of the Joy Circle and Gleaners
Circle of the King's Daughters and Sons Home, the Assn. for the Preservation
of Tennessee Antiquities (or Fontaine House), the Garden Study Club, the
Eastwood Home and Garden Club, the China Decorators Club, and the Summit Club.
The family would like to thank all her friends and all those who cared for her
over the past several years. Visitation will be at Memorial Park beginning at
10:30 a.m., Monday, December 14, 2009, with the funeral service beginning
