Hazel Jane Harris Young, of Christiansburg, passed away on Tuesday, September 5, 2017. She was born on June 22, 1925, to the late Claude Eddison and Clara Ada Moles Harris. One of eight children, she was also preceded in death by her sisters, Nola and Vesta; brothers, Wakley, Pete, Starling, and Trent. Hazel was also preceded in death by her beloved husband, Thomas G. Young; and daughter, Patsy Brubaker.

Hazel is survived by her son, Danny R. Young of Raleigh, NC; grandchildren, Ryan Young, Kristen Vorachith, and Richelle Petersheim; 12 great-grandchildren; sister, Velva East; as well as 11 nieces and three nephews.

Hazel moved to Floyd at the age of 19 and started to work in Floyd Garment Factory making men’s shirts, and was living with Mrs. Maberry, next to the Maberry Funeral Home. Shortly thereafter met the love of her life, T. G. ‘Godfrey’ Young and moved to Christiansburg to start a new life. The young couple took up housekeeping in an apartment on Forest Street where their son was born. They were later able to build a house at 101 Angle Drive, where their daughter was born. Hazel was a housewife for most of her married life, but did some babysitting to bring in some extra money for the family. After their children graduated from high school, she went to work for a daycare center for a number of years where she enjoyed working with the children and getting to know their parents. She was very proud of her accomplishment of buying a car and helping her husband with various obligations around the house.

She and Godfrey lived at their Christiansburg home until her husband died from cancer in September, 1999. Hazel continued to live there until she fell and broke a shoulder. After a few months of rehabilitation, she returned to her home. She stayed fairly active, visiting neighbors and talking on the telephone. She stayed at home for eight months until she fell and broke her hip, and went to Heritage Hall for rehab. Hazel was a long time member of Park United Methodist Church.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, September 9, 2017, from 10 am until noon at Horne Funeral Home. The Funeral Service will begin at noon in the Chapel, with Pastor Robert Wright officiating. Interment will follow in the Harris Family Cemetery in Willis, VA.

2013 Obit for Annie Wray Harris:

Annie Lee Wray Harris, loved and loving wife and mother is spending Christmas this year in the presence of her Savior, Jesus Christ. She left this life to join Him early Wednesday morning, December 18, 2013. Born October 3, 1931, she fought the good fight and kept the faith.

She spent her life making a home for her family, and later welcoming friends and family to visit as often as possible. She enjoyed going to their camper at Claytor Lake during the spring and summer months and spending time with her friends there. She enjoyed cooking and her flowers and going to yard sales. It was important to spend time with them whenever they came home to visit at Christmas and during the summer.

Her friends at church and her neighbors were all important to her. She was always willing to lend a helping hand in any situation any way she could.

She will be greatly missed by those left behind, but we all wish her the VERY BEST Christmas yet and look forward to seeing her again soon. Our greatest memory of her will be her smile, which she always had with her.

"Often in life what appears to be an ending is really a glorious beginning."-R.H.Heinlein

Visitation has been set for 6 to 8 p.m. on Friday night (December 20, 2013) at Mercer Funeral Home located at 1231 Cumberland Road, Bluefield, WV. Services will be on Saturday at 2 p.m. at the same location. Burial will be held at 10 a.m. Monday (December 23, 2013) at Southwest Virginia Veteran's Cemetery in Dublin, Va.
