So sorry to hear of Hazels passing. She was a great influence to me during my younger years. Always full of laughter. Players and thoughts to you All.
I loved her laugh. She always reminded me of Grandma Holder. She will be missed. My prayers are with the family. I love you all.
Praying for God’s peace to surround the family at this difficult time. Ms. Hazel was in a class all by herself! Loved that woman!
So sorry loved her very much
