Hundreds attended services on Saturday at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church to celebrate the life of Nicole Hazen, who died on Aug. 4 at age 45
Hazen, the wife of Diamondbacks General Manager Mike Hazen, was remembered for her ability to connect with people and forge strong friendships, as well as for her passion for her family and teaching.
She left behind four sons between the ages of 12 and 16. Mike Hazen, who spoke on Saturday, delivered powerful and heartfelt remarks, much of which was aimed at his boys. He said he hoped they understood why he had been constantly reminding them to hug their mother whenever they walked into or out of a room with her.
He continued: “If there is one thing I could ask you to carry on in her legacy, it would be to be a magnet for good people. Your mother was like a moth to a flame for good people.” “Even though I was the younger brother and could have been excluded, she kept me involved,” he said. “I was her friend, too. That might explain why my first concert ever was Debbie Gibson and my second one was New Kids on the Block.”
