Ms. Hazel enjoyed making Rosaries for the mission; she liked playing Pokeno, cards, and rummy. We will miss her lemon pies, black berry cobblers, and she loved her Cajun coffee.
We will remember mom as being feisty, vibrant, unfiltered, strong willed and quick witted, generous to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Mary Shrine.
