Our sweet mother, Hazel Phillips Jackson, died peacefully at her home on October 31, 2004, surrounded by her husband, Richard W. Jackson and her children and their spouses. She was born in Lehi, Utah, January 6, 1918, the daughter of Abel J. Phillips and Emma Goates Phillips.
Hazel attended school in Lehi until the family moved to Salt Lake City in 1934. She graduated from East High School in 1935 and from the University of Utah in 1939, with a BA Degree in Primary and Secondary Education with a major in music, graduating with honors. She taught school at Uintah Elementary in Salt Lake City.
Hazel married Richard W. Jackson in the Salt Lake Temple, June 10, 1942. They moved to Berkeley, California, for our father to finish his graduate work in architecture.
She is the loving mother of six children: LouAnn (Robert H. Anderson), Charlene (Rand C. Locke), and Roger P. (Rhonda Ballard). We were so loved by her and consider it a privilege to be her children. She is survived by her husband, 31 grandchildren and 26 great grandchildren who were the joy and delight of her life. Preceded in death by her parents and brother, Alvin G. Phillips.
Our mother was a member of the LDS Church and blessed her family with her testimony of the Savior. She served with her husband and children in his Building Mission assignment in Europe. She also served with him as a Service Missionary in the South Salt Lake Stake and they served a mission in Nauvoo together. She taught piano to many young people. Mother was a teacher, served as Ward and Stake organist, twice as Relief Society president, counselor in the state YWMIA, on a stake Primary board and many years on a stake Relief Society board. She as a long-time member of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. Our mother taught us to love each other. We honor her life and send her home to our Heavenly Father with Joy.
