Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryHAZEL MARGUERITE DUKELOW (nee BRISCOE) Our dear mother, grandmother, and great- grandmother passed away in the early hours of December 26, 2017. Hazel will be sadly missed by her children, Garry (Saundra), Gail (Rene) and Glenn (Gisela). She'll also be fondly remembered by her grandchildren, Kirsten, Kelsey, Kurtis, Carla, Kyle and Robert. Hazel was also blessed with 11 great-grandchildren. Mom was born in Neepawa, Manitoba, on March 8, 1923. She was a gentle soul and a nurturing mother, most often there to support us in our day-to-day activities and education. Life wasn't always easy, but she managed to have a smile on her face and portray her witty sense of humour, which at times took us by surprise. Later in life she'd be in her 80s and still be able to snow blow her driveway as well as the neighbour's. When she got cold, she would come in the house, get a shot of brandy to warm up and then she would go out again. We will remember her as a caring mother who never wanted to be a burden to anyone, always excusing herself for being a bother. There were many cherished memories of summers spent at Nutimik Lake with family and friends out on the water fishing and boating. Hazel was predeceased by her parents, John and Elizabeth Briscoe; husband Robert; brothers, Kenneth, James, Dennis and Raymond. Her sisters, Lillian Briggs and Elsie Williams also predeceased Hazel. Left are her brother Allan; sisters, Bernice Gibson, Cecilia Bough and Maureen Turner. On December 30, 2017, Hazel's brother Jack, passed at the age of 98. A private graveside service will be arranged at a later date. If so desired, in lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the charity of your choice.

I grew up across the street from Bob and Hazel. I will always remember her kindness, her smile, her sense of humor, and her laugh. I saw first hand how she doted on her children and grandchildren and particularly her dogs. Hazel brought joy to a lot of people. Thank you so much for the great memories, Hazel. - Posted by: Paul Douglas (Old neighbor) on: Feb 20, 2018

I knew Hazel from Windsor Park United Church. She was a soft spoken, sweet, caring lady who I always enjoyed visiting with when I was the secretary there. Those who had the pleasure of knowing her will miss her. - Posted by: Judy Kuffner (Friend ) on: Jan 06, 2018
