More recently she lived in Marlton. She spent the final months of her life under the special  care of the staff at the Lutheran Crossings in Moorestown, NJ. Hazel was a very delightful, loving person that  brought happiness everywhere she went. Hazel was always the life of the party. Her lovely smile brightened the entire room whenever she entered and the joy of the occasion rose to a  much higher height. She enjoyed being host to family and friends for many parties and holiday gatherings at her various homes throughout her life. Even during her final illness, despite her discomfort, she continued to bring laughter and happy experiences to those who visited her. She was a proud 50 years member of the Eastern Star.

She loved her  part time job, working at "The Lucky 7 Restaurant" in Medford. The employer and all  employees say  that the happiest days were when Hazel was working.  She was dearly loved by the entire family and all that  came to know her. Because of her delight in dressing in different shades of purple clothing, she was affectionately named by her family "Purple Haze." She will  be dearly missed by so many. Yet we know that she is now where we all some day pray to be...with her loving God.
