I remember being around your Mom a lot at Wausau Bible Church and at her house. My Mom and her were friends.
The things I remember most about her were her smile and her laugh.
All of you are in my thoughts and prayers in this time of loss.

So sorry to hear of Hazel's passing. I worked with her at West kitchen. She always made you laugh with her pranks. The end of the school year "Bag Lady" routine is one of my favorite memories of my years there. She was a very special lady! Cherish your memories of her.

Hazel was a sweet lady who always had a smile to greet you. I enjoyed caring for her and getting to know her. There was a picture on her wall and in it Hazel has her head tilted back and she's laughing. I always thought it was a great picture and that is how I'll always remember her.

I didn't know Hazel personally, but knew of her relatives in the Athens area. She was a close friend of my sister, Donna, who is in Mount View at this time. Hazel & Donna had a wonderful conversation reminiscing the day before Hazel passed.

I remember the "money roses" that Hazel used to make for gifts - I always enjoyed every single one of her visits to the credit union!
