So sad for Hazel's passing. She was my Dad, Murl Williams' favorite cousin. We loved Hazel very much. Such a sweet and caring lady.

We will miss Grandma Hazel. She was our neighbor for many years while our kids were little. Jake, Emma, and Nick used to build steps at the fence between our houses so that they could talk to Hazel when she was in her backyard. All of us loved her and will miss her.
Our youngest now, Lillian, carries on this same tradition with Hazel's son, Larry, as he is now our neighbor. Family carries on.
