She was raised and well known in the Glenwood Mill community of Easley. Hazel was the oldest of 4 and showcased that title perfectly as she kept everyone in line including her many nieces and nephews that she looked after. Her child-like joy and love for her family were contagious. Hazel had an impeccable memory and never forgot a birthday or anybody she met. Hazel was a longtime member of Landmark Baptist Church and was a faithful prayer warrior. Hazel was a consumer with the Pickens County Board of Disabilities and worked at Better Skills for many years. Hazel taught countless people how to love and treat those with different abilities, and her legacy will live on through her beautiful family.
