On May 30, 1923 she was married to Harry G. Myer, and they moved immediately into the home in Soldier, which is still the family home.
Three boys were born into this new home, Lowell Orr, Gilbert F. (who died in infancy), and Virle A.
Hazel's first devotion was to her home and family. Next in her affection came the church. Although she served the church in many capacities, with her musical talent and teaching ability--the young peoples work was closest to her heart.
That same interest in young people, coupled with her belief in education, resulted in her election to the board of the Grade School. The present building was erected while she was serving on board.
She was a member of the Christian Church and Past Noble Grand of the Rebekah lodge.*
There were at least two outstanding characteristics of her life. First she was a person of broad interests, reading widely, and with understanding. Her outlook was always refreshing and optimistic.
Second she was an "Angel of Mercy" often the first to discover someone in need of in difficulty. She bore their pain in her own heart, and sought through every means to ease the hurt.
Four years ago this month, the illness which was to claim her life, struck her, taking her from her family and friends. Through it all she maintained her cheerfulness and believed her health would be restored.
Death came on July 30, 1948 at the age of 50 years, 4 months, and 17 days.
She is survived by her husband, Harry G. Myer, two sons, Lowell Orr, and Virle A; her mother, Laura E. McCreight; a new grandson Marvin; and her five sisters, Mrs. Marcia Snyder of Mankato, Kansas; Mrs. Alice West, Denver, Colorado; Mrs. Edna Siegel, Port Orchard, Washington; Mrs. Olive Ball, Aurora, Colorado; and Mrs. Mildred Gruver, Wichita, Kansas.
Her quiet, trusting spirit, is shared by those who remain behind. They are certain that Heaven is enriched by her presence, even as they have been made better for having known her.
The funeral services were held at the Soldier Christian Church on Monday afternoon, conducted by Pastors Maurice Bigger, Walter Carson of Valley Falls and R. E. West of Denver, Colorado.
Mrs. Walter Carson was soloist with Mrs. Miriam Jepson accompanying.
Casket bearers were Walter Bennett, E. C. Swain, Clyde White, Charles Brooks, Irvin Jepson, George Scheidegger and Wayne Channel.
