Hazel loved living in Duchesne where she had many friends and family. She enjoyed spending time with her best friend Betty and going to play Bingo and visiting at the Senior Center.
She also loved the state of Alabama where she was born. She went back there to live a couple of times in her life. She loved the Crimson Tide Football team of the University of Alabama. Roll Tide Roll… But Utah was where her kids and family were. So that is where she loved to live. Hazel was loved by all who knew her…
