They lived in Kirksville MO, Salt Lake City UT, Brashear MO, Houston TX, Anahuac TX, Enid OK, Oklahoma City OK, Duncan OK, Henryetta OK, and Hot Springs AR. Her husband Henry's abrasive personality resulted in their having to move often. Son Gabe said that Henry's political views caused his barber shop to be burned.
Belle was a homemaker and a conscientious churchgoer; she took pride in her perfect attendance award from her Sunday School class. Every Christmas son Gabe remembered the marvelous divinity candy she made for the family on her two-burner Butterfly kerosene stove. She was a sensitive perfectionist who took life seriously.
Her father died in 1927, and her mother died in 1928. The last of her children, Hazel and Gabe(the "apple of her eye"), left home in 1928; the next year the Great Depression made life even more difficult. Belle, Henry, and Harry moved to Hot Springs AR to get treatment for her at the military hospital, but nothing helped. Overwhelmed by a hard life, she died alone at the Arkansas State Hospital in Little Rock in 1930.
There is a memorial marker for Hattie Belle in the garden columbarium at Mount Holly Cemetery in Little Rock, and a memorial monument to those interred in the State Hospital graveyard at the Natural Resources Complex, northeast quadrant of I-430 and West Markham, Little Rock. There are no markers for or records of the several thousand people buried there. Years later, some of the remains were disinterred and transferred to the Behavioral Health Services Center in Benton. The records are incomplete, and it is not clear who is buried where.
She has memorials at Mount Holly Cemetery, Little Rock,and Benton #1 Cemetery, Benton.
