Hazel Hamness Obituary
"Lee," as she preferred to be called, was greatly loved and surrounded by her family and friends. She was married to Edwin Hamness for 21 years and is survived by their two daughters, Reta (Adrian) Terrell and Vicki (Mike) Blue; her grandchildren, Shiree Ingram, Amber Buck, Tamara Blue, Brian Blue, Kriste House, Sunny Corbett and Misty Meisner; and 14 great-grandchildren.
Lee was an adventurous and hard-working woman, and some of her accomplishments were graduating from West Linn, Oregon, High School, being a bus driver, secretary, lift truck driver and retiring as a trimmer operator for Champion in Bonner, Montana. She truly loved life and learning and was always quick to encourage you with her Bible-based beliefs about her god, Jehovah. Lee will be greatly missed but certainly not forgotten.
Services for Lee will be held at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, 5590 Jackrabbit Lane, Belgrade, MT 59715, on Saturday, July 11, at 1:30 p.m. with a reception to follow.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

I just finished looking at the assortment of wonderful pictures that are posted! Amazing life! Lee has always been the most classiest ladies I ever had the privelege of knowing! I can only hope to follow in her footsteps! We all loved Lee, how could you not? Spunky, funny, full of life - even when you knew she wasn't feeling as well as she should be. We will miss her, but not for long....
