Hazel worked for 18 years at Del Dixie Canning Plant in West Orange and for five years at West Orange School Cafeteria. She also baby sat the Bourgeois boys and loved all three as her own.
She was known to her friends as Hazel and to her family as Big Maw. She loved to dance, cook Cajun food, and play bingo. Her grandchildren have special memories of her dressing as a witch on Halloween and giving out candy.
Hazel loved shopping at garage sales and Wal-Mart. She, her good friend Irene Viator and her two sisters made many wonderful memories during these shopping trips.
Good bye Big Maw, we love you.
