Hazel was born on March 1, 1933 in Kilbourne, Louisiana. After graduating from Baton Rouge High School in 1951, she married Arthur David Deloach on March 22, 1952. In 1965, she graduated with her Bachelor’s of Education from Northeast Louisiana State College and taught in the Monroe, New Orleans, and Baton Rouge school districts. She was a prominent member of the Broadmoor United Methodist Church community and served as the Treasurer of the Lamplighters Sunday school class, regularly volunteered at the BUMC Food Pantry, sang with the choir, and regularly worked the reception desk at Holy Chow. Hazel was a lieutenant and board member for the Krewe de Mystique and a member of the Red Hat Society. Hazel was independent, accepting, and kind. She loved jewelry, scarves, and never met a pantsuit that didn’t look fabulous on her. Her trademark white hair was always perfectly styled. She will be loved and missed by all.
