She was a wonderful lady. Hazel was my grandmother's sister and they were also the best of friends. I have never seen a sweeter couple than Jake and Hazel. They were married 65 years. I know she is and will be terribly missed.

Yep, Jake was devoted to Ms Hazel. And boy oh boy, could she bake some mighty fine cakes! But so can her sister. ;)
