A wonderful mother.
Marie Ethel Hazelman age 88 of Wayne died Wednesday, June 22, 2011 at the Care One Health Care Facility in Wayne.
Her passing was quiet and peaceful after receiving the loving care of her family who spent much time at her bedside.
She was born in Doylestown, Pennsylvania where she spent her early years. At the age of fourteen she along with her mother two brothers and a sister moved to Paterson, NJ to live with her grandmother.
Marie found work at private Brands and later Keystone Camera Company both in Clifton. Her primary responsibility was as an assembler of products.
In those days our country was coming out of a depression and economic times where especially challenging. Families had to get everyone to work to help support the family and that is just what she did.
In 1978 she came down with an illness and had to retire from work.
Another family member introduced her to a handsome fellow by the name of Walter Hazelman. After a brief courtship they married on June 20, 1942 and had fifty-four years of “two peas in a pod” loving and devoted marriage together until Walter’s passing in 1996.
Marie was gifted with a quiet and reserved personality coupled with an intense motherly love. She had two sons, Walter and Bruce, who she loved with all of her heart. Mom was always concerned about them and no matter how many birthdays they had they were still the apple of her eye. When grandchildren and great grandchildren arrived her life her journey got even better. She simply loved them to pieces.
Her sons recall that after school she would often have special treats waiting for them to enjoy.
Thanks Mom for being so special in our lives.
While living in Wayne she was a member of Saint Timothy Lutheran Church.
Surviving are two sons Walter W. Hazelman Jr. of Newfoundland and Bruce Hazelman and his wife Melinda of Wayne; sister of Kenneth Bryan and his wife Doris of Washington Township; cherished grandmother of Denise Hazelman-Hatch and her husband Tim, Rocky Hazelman and his wife Ren and Lynn Hazelman; great grandmother of Justin Hatch, Gennaro and Claire Hazelman
