Born February 29, 1916 in Saint Anthony, Idaho to Frederick A. and Fern Y.rson. Hazel celebrated only 22 real birthdays because she was a leap year baby.

She also worked for Darrell's Beauty Salon and Kay Dunn's Beauty Salon. Hazel will be missed by all that knew her. She was a talented seamstress and a wonderful cook. She enjoyed caring for her home and family. Hazel always had her hair and nails well groomed and loved to wear pretty dresses. She sewed her dresses and dresses for her daughters and nieces. Many of her posterity treasure the handmade quilts made for them. Her crystal icicles adorn many Christmas trees and will be a constant reminder of her love. Whenever we have cake with chocolate frosting or graham cracker cookies with chocolate frosting, grandma's memory will be with us. Mom always told us that "paprika" adds color to our lives. Survived by her children, Steven (Nancy) Merrill, Kaysville; Susan (Larry) Christenson, West Valley City; Craig (Stephanie) Merrill, West Jordan; Colleen (Tom) Clark, West Haven; 18 grandchildren and 31 great-grandchildren; sisters Mary Jane Harward and Joann Symmes and many nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank CareSource Hospice and the Rocky Mountain Hospice for the loving kindness and care given to our mother.
