Tell us about your favorite or funny Hattie memory? I was sitting at a table during my first women's leadership meeting with a few other women who were talking amongst themselves before the meeting, but I wasn't included. Hattie came in, sat down next to me, and immediately engaged with me. I think she could see that it was awkward for me and wanted to make sure I was included. What did you learn from her? Or a quote you remember her saying? I learned to search out that person who is sitting alone and engage with them to make them feel like a welcome part of the group.
What was your first impression? She was fun. We were going to be friends for a long time!! Tell us about your favorite or funny Hattie memory? In my 64 years as Hattie's friend and 21 years as a Board member at Fremont Bank, I can honestly say [my favorite memory] was my awe in how when Hattie entered a room, everyone lit up! Smiles, laughs, and joy exuded from her! She was the heart of Fremont Bank, and the purveyor of fun to her friends!
