We will cherish many fond memories of times and events that we shared with Hazel. She was lady of many talents–friendship, concern for others and an abiding faith in the goodness of others. We will miss her at LPCC but we will not forget.
Sadly we cannot be with you on Sat. We are taking our Family to Stratford to see Peter Pan. I think that Hazel would be happy about that.
Ron and I send our deepest sympathy to all of you. Affectionately Fern Lougheed.

Both Jim and I would like the family of Hazel Burns to know how much she will be missed in the family of Lawrence Park Community Church. She gave herself fully to what ever she did whether being the treasurer of “Unit B” (she whipped us into shape -gently) or volunteering in the church office. Hazel always had a wonderful smile that lit up her face. It was pure pleasure listening to some of her stories. She had a good sense of humour which kept us all on the right track.
We are thinking about you in this time of sorrow.
Please, our sincerest condolences,
Jim and Betty Lawson
