• Notes

  Obituary: It is with heavy hearts that the family of Hazel M. Watson of Centreville, NB announces that her death occurred on Friday, March 1, 2013 at the Upper River Valley Hospital in Waterville. She was born on November 19, 1923 and was the daughter of the late Leslie and Myra (Robinson) Barclay. She was also predeceased by her infant son Herman and her sister Dorothy Farquhar. Following her graduation from Andover Grammar School Hazel attended the L. P. Fisher Memorial Hospital School of Nursing, graduating as a Registered Nurse in 1946. After graduation she worked for a total of three years as a nurse at the hospitals in Woodstock and Blacks Harbour. Hazel married David Watson on June 29,1949 and they eventually settled in Centreville where they spent most of their married lives. Hazel played a vital role in the kitchen of the Green Lantern Restaurant (which the family ran from 1953 until 1967) turning a skilled and loving hand to everything from peas to pies. She worked as a nurse at the Northern Carleton Hospital in Bath from 1964 until her retirement in 1988, providing her tender loving care to countless patients, especially moms and their new babies. Retirement didn’t mean “stop” to Hazel as she busied herself with countless activities including gardening, playing cards, attending Women’s’ Institute meetings and functions, family functions, the annual Nova Scotia shopping trip and thus earning the well- deserved handle of “The Road Runner.” She had a special love for her family and thoroughly enjoyed being surrounded by her children and grandchildren. Hazel is survived by her husband of 63 years David, her children Marsha (David) VanSlyke, Audrey (Jeff) Cooke, David (Donna) Watson, Michael (Susan) Watson and Joan (Lionel) Pryor; grandchildren Kelly (Jason) Fortier, Christopher, Gregory (Erin), Andrew (Jorge), and Brent VanSlyke, Andrea (Michael) Willis, Amy (Luc), Allison (Isaiah) and David (Cindy) Watson, Danielle and Justin Upshall, and Jonathan Pryor; and great granddaughter Amber VanSlyke; 1 sister, Mavis (Earl) Smith; 1 brother, George(Gail) Barclay; brother in law, Joseph Farquhar and several nieces, nephews and cousins.
