To the family of Hazel. (I well remember Merritt, and his family, as I heard him play his guitar before/back in the 80's). Past memories, and I was with Craig Murdock, at that time, also. I have since moved back to the area, for the time being. You are all in my thoughts and prayers, May God Bless all of you. -Most Sincerely,Brenda Niebel

My Prayer are out to the Ligorw family. I was raised with most of them and I knew Hazel well. She was a member of my bowling team many years ago. She will be greatly missed. Really nice lady.
