With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Hazel (Mastine) Pezzi, who departed this life on May 30th, 2024 (Aged 74), surrounded by her family at La Maison Aube Lumiere after a brief but brave battle with cancer.

0n April 5th, 1969, Hazel married the love of her life, Ariosto (Harry) Pezzi, husband of 55 years, and together they built a beautiful life in Danville. She was a devoted wife and a loving mother to three children: Tina (Steve Bilodeau), Mark (Karen Painter), and Mike (Julie Langlois). Her life was enriched by her seven adored grandchildren: Bradley, Bryanna, Brayden, Brandyce, Chase, Cole, and Dawson. She also embraced her step-grandchildren, Casey and Brianna.
She was the sister of the late Margaret (late Harold Blake), late Stanley (late Ethel), late Clifford (Joyce), Blanche (late Nelson Mastine), late Everett (Eileen), late Harold (Shirley), Raymond (Elizabeth), Marjorie (Lloyd Doyle), John (Barbara), Dorothy (Roy Bushey), and she remained the cherished youngest of her large and loving family.

She also leaves to mourn many cousins, nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends. Hazel's family and friends will remember her for her boundless love, generosity, and dedication.
A resident of Danville for most of her life, Hazel was known for her love of shopping and her unwavering support for local community activities and fundraisers. She was a familiar and cherished presence at many events, always ready to lend a hand and contribute to causes close to her heart, including participating in scrapbooking events like "Create For Comfort" a fundraiser for La Maison Aube-Lumière. She was one of the founding members of the Mastine Family Association (MFA) focused on bringing family together while preserving its history and served on its Executive Committee for the past 34 years. She found immense joy in her family, and her legacy of kindness and strength will live on through them.
