Later years she worked in Indiana at an old ladies home taking care of the elderly. During the war she worked in a factory in Mass. making parts for airplanes.

She married Robert Moody in Oct. of 1948 and together they built their home next door to the farm while living in a tent on the lawn. One infant daughter died, but three more daughters followed Louise, Elaine and Lorraine. Many family memories were made fishing and swimming on Aziscoos Lake. Hazel loved to feed the deer and birds.
