This site is a tribute to Hazel's life, with a selection of memories and photographs to remember her by. Please feel free to add your own pictures or thoughts and memories below. If you would like to make a donation to the Parkinson's charity this would be greatly appreciated.

Hazel grew up with her two sisters in Wilmslow, Cheshire, before studying modern languages at Oxford where she met David. After university she trained as a solicitor and worked initially in central London for Rowe and Maw before moving to Dixon Ward in Richmond where she worked for the rest of her career. She spent many happy years living in the family home in nearby East Sheen where she was a keen tennis player at the local club.

Since her early years she loved spending time in the Lake District with no walk being too challenging. On retirement, she and David moved to the Lakes permanently where Hazel was able to continue her tennis and to expand her gardening work at home and at Holehird.

Hazel and David celebrated their ruby wedding anniversary in the Lakes with the family. Her eldest son Jeremy lives in San Francisco with Heather and their children Cameran and Parker, and Hazel was able to visit them before the pandemic. Hazel was so happy to be able to attend her youngest son Christopher's wedding to Sarah just recently in the Lakes.
