    Just learned of Hazel’s passing and consequently I have lost a beloved friend and mentor; one who took me under her wing when I was a rookie teacher. My last memory is a lovely one: tea, sandwiches and squares served on china with Sherri and Valerie present at Hazel’s house with the lady of the manor presiding.

    To Hazel’s family,

    Hazel was a great neighbour when I lived across the road on Bristol Avenue. She was also a wonderful friend to my mother, particularly when Muriel couldn’t go out any more. She phoned her every day and often came over to share afternoon tea. We always enjoyed our conversations with her.

    You are in my thoughts and prayers.
