d/o Frank and Alice (Dutton) Eldridge.
wife of Ralph L Urie.
CAMBRIDGE - Hazel E. Urie, 80, of Urie Road, passed away peacefully Sunday morning, April 10, 2011, at The Manor in Morrisville.
Hazel was born Sept. 1, 1930, in Wolcott, the daughter of the late Frank and Alice Dutton Eldridge.
Growing up, she was an avid horsewoman and showed their horses at the local fairs. Hazel graduated from Barton Academy and went on to graduate from Perry Normal School in Boston, Mass. She taught at Thayer School on North Avenue in Burlington and briefly substituted at Cambridge Elementary. For many years she was Treasurer of the Cambridge United Church. On June 28, 1953, she married Ralph L. Urie and in 1955 they purchased a dairy farm in North Cambridge, aptly renaming it "Ring O'Hills Farm" where they raised their three children. They both loved farm life and nature with Hazel working alongside Ralph on the farm, helping with everything from barn chores to milking to haying in the summer. The farmhouse always had a homey feel and the smells of Hazel's home cooking and baking were always present, along with little bouquets of flowers and unusual plants that Ralph collected for her. Her warm, loving smile and cheerfulness will be missed by all who knew and loved her.
She now joins Ralph who predeceased her on July 14, 2010, and their beloved son, Brent E. Urie, who predeceased them both on April 30, 2009.
She will be dearly missed by her daughters, Annie Cook and her husband, Maurice of Fletcher, and Donna Safford and her husband, Scott of Jeffersonville; grand- daughter, Heather Safford Shannon and her husband, Ryan of Broomfield, Colo.; sister, Helen Millican and husband, John Hall of Eastham, Mass.; her extended family members, Lori Goodyear and daughters, Morgan and Erica, and many nieces and nephews.
Visiting hours will be held on Saturday, April 16, 2011, at the home of Maurice and Annie Cook in Fletcher from 1 to 5 p.m.
