Message: Sincere sympathy to the family of a remarkable lady who has touched the lives of each and every person she has met. Long will the memories live on of all the births of her children, birthday parties, family visits, graduations, babysitting, but most of all the years spent working at the Tastee Freez. Hazel provided the community with a place to gather and enjoy the great food. She will be missed dearly but the legacy lives on in her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren.
