Hazel Maynor Obituary
GREENSBORO — Hazel B. Maynor, 84, of Greensboro, passed away on Thursday, September 24, 2009, at the Blumenthal Nursing Center.
A Mass of Christian burial will be held at 10:30 a.m. today, Monday, September 28, at St. Benedict's Catholic Church. Burial will follow at Forest Lawn Cemetery.
Hazel was born in Malvern, Worcester, England, on July 12, 1925. It was in England that she met and married the late Luther V. Maynor of Greensboro, who was stationed there during World War II. Together they made their home in Greensboro, where Hazel worked with her husband in the early days of his company, Maynor Casket and Funeral Supply.
Hazel was well known for her tireless service to and volunteer work with Saint Pius X, and to the larger church community, most notably her decades as Head of the Sacristans and Altar Guild, Eucharistic Minister, Bereavement Committee, the school Hot Lunch Bunch, Mobile Meals and her volunteer work at the Franciscan Center, from its beginning. She was a woman of extraordinary compassion, kindness and self-giving, and was known by many who did not know her name as "the lady with the beautiful smile."
In addition to her husband, Hazel is preceded in death by a brother, Jack Bullock, also of Malvern, England.
She is survived by her fivechildren, Dr. Barry A. Maynor and wife, Betty. of Greensboro, Geoffrey Maynor and wife, Sharon, of Greensboro, Kimberly M. Maynor of Madison, Stephanie M. McIntyre and husband, Richard, of Morehead City, and Melanie M. Sennett and husband, Ray, of Raleigh; grandchildren, Barrie Alaine Vela, Wendy Fleming, Tara Maynor, Sarah Maynor, Scott Maynor, Justin Carter, Kevin Carter, Tripp McIntyre, Morganne McIntyre, and Aniston Sennett; great-grandchildren, Hunter Rowland, A.J. Vela, Andrew Vela, and Julia Vela, and her two younger brothers, Dennis Bullock of Malvern, England, and Geoffrey Bullock of Bristol, England.
The family will receive friends at #5 Hatteras Court, the residence of Geoffrey Maynor.
Memorial contributions may be made to CurePSP (The Society for Progressive Supranuclear Palsy), Executive Plaza III, 11350 McCormick Road, Suite 906, Hunt Valley, MD 21031, or to Hospice and Palliative Care of Greensboro, 2500 Summit Avenue, Greensboro, NC 27405.
