My Name is Margaret Marker. I was doing some research on some old cartoon sketches Gene Hazelton had given our family. Sorry to hear he has passed away. My Father Roy Marker who had designed this home in San Diego right on San Carlos Country club golf course. Gene Bought our home in 1973. There he lived for I dont know how long. He did give us a gift of his work and talents. Here are the sketches and orginal envelope he sent us. You really need to enlarge the letter he wrote. Enjoy
Welcome Gene Hazelton fans !!
Sorry I didnt take better care of these Cartoons and other Items. They have been in the envelope ever since they were recieved. When our parents passed away, Erma and Roy ( God rest their souls) we separated the cartoons among us. Some where lost to flood. Treasures now , I think I should frame them. I really hope you enjoy Gene Hazelton's work. He moved to our home in 1973. I believe him and his family. I was so young at the time, I dont remember. But, the home my dad, Roy B. Marker built was a five bedroom home. I believe the Hazeltons put in a pool from what I see from Satellite. I miss that house and the memories.. Gene R.I.P. and a heartfelt Thankyou Scroll down to read his letter! And to see the cartoon boards

Thankyou Mike for sharing my Blog, hope people enjoy it. Took me a while considering I am new at this. YOur link is on mine as well.
Hi Maggie,
I found your blog through Mike Lynch's blog. Great Gene Hazelton stuff. His work has been a huge influence on my work for years. I'm also a cartoonist and did some Hanna-Barbera comic books that I sent to Gene. He mailed back a nice note saying how much he enjoyed my work. I have some original Yogi and Flintstones art I've gotten over the years on my wall. I'm only sorry I never got to meet him. You can go to garyfieldsstudios.blogspot.com to look at my work and comment. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Margaret, This post is from the daughter of Gene Hazelton. My parents had many happy years in the beautiful home your father designed. My mother passed away in 1987 after loving this house for 14 years. My father stayed in the house until he went to a nursing facility and he passed away in 2005. I was happy to find this post and glad you shared it with others.
I'm glad that "Satan" did not list me as evil. Although I understand his feelings my parents were not the "devil" just good, hard working, decent human beings.
From. The daughter (good not evil)
PS. I am still living in San Diego.
So great to here from you! Im glad you got to see this blog☺Im so sorry about the posts from satan. I dont understand them and really quite honestly its not what this page is about. Its not about his sons. I try to delete when I see them. Kids will be kids. Thank you for the update. I loved that house..fond memories of my childhood home. Hope you enjoyed it as much. I still am in contact with a few of my old neighbors.
I DONT CARE. THIS ARTICLE IS NOT ABOUT THEM.
