She loved to receive notes and cards from her grandchildren and especially the pictures of the little ones. Hazel enjoyed cooking and knitting and tending to the flowers in the garden. Hazels life consisted of her daily routine of meeting a special group of friends for coffee at Polo Park Shopping Centre in spite of weather conditions. She enjoyed listening to their stories and appreciated the friendship and closeness she felt from these friends. Each day she did her mall walking and knew many people who worked in Polo Park. She was a friend to the many people she met. Hazel took pride in her dress and style. She did not hesitate to buy in fashion clothes for herself and enjoyed the compliments she received.
