Name/Title

Hazel Yuen - A View - Peninsula Del Rey

Description

Hazel was born in San Francisco in 1924. Her father's job as manager of Dollar Stores required that the family move frequently during her childhood. She met her husband at a Lake Tahoe Christian Conference, married at 22, and has two girls and one boy. A registered nurse, Hazel recalls an amazing work adventure. Accompanying a sailor who could not fly due to a stroke, she made a three-week boat trip to Taiwan. Her travels continued when her children were older. She and her husband traveled to Taiwan, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia and Europe. An avid shopper, Hazel says her favorite destination is Hong Kong. Hazel likes being with people and says being involved in activities keeps her going. She’s been creative in many ways all her life: singing in a church choir, making her own clothes, doing needlework, embroidery and knitting, and writing. When her children were younger she painted their portraits, paying them to pose. She has taken art classes in adult school and now enjoys painting landscapes.
