Hazel loved university life and graduated with a bachelor of science specializing in math and physics. She dreamed of seeing the places she’d read about – Africa, Europe, Asia, Australia – and wanted a job to make enough money to travel. A year later, at 22, she took off to England with a girlfriend to see family and explore. She didn’t know that she would also fall in love.
Linda, their first daughter, was born in 1957. But motherhood didn’t stop Hazel from opening a store two years later. Hazel worked hard. Her children remember being the last kids picked up at school. She would arrive with apologies, scoop the kids into the car and avoid the teacher’s glower. Then she’d drive to Dairy Queen for a treat. But she always made bedtime special. She curled up beside them to read stories and sing and say goodnight in five languages.
