At her home on 18th April 2026, Hazel, aged 79 years, of Accrington. The much-loved daughter of the late Benny and Nora, a loved cousin of Judith, Linda, John and the late John, and also a dear relative and friend to many.
Hazel began her working life as an office junior and, through dedication and hard work, progressed through the ranks to become an accountant. Extremely organised and devoted to her career, she was a natural in the office and always ensured everything ran like clockwork. She later retired from her role as Payroll Manager. At home, Hazel loved to read and owned more books than the local library, most of them non-fiction. She had a great thirst for knowledge and was always eager to learn, absorbing information with remarkable ease. Hazel also enjoyed craftwork and was highly skilled in embroidery and lacework. A keen animal lover throughout her life, Hazel gave many rescue dogs a loving and caring home, ensuring they lived out their days in comfort, warmth and happiness.
She will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved her.
