Hazel (Hoff) Marvin Beal was born on Tuesday, October 24, 1893, the daughter of Sam and Frances (Gruber) Hoff. Sam was an Omaha politician and race-horse owner.

On Sunday, August 31, 1913, Hazel married David Marvin at St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Florence, NE. That marriage ended in divorce.

On Wednesday, December 12, 1928, Hazel married Walt Beal in Omaha, NE.

Hazel and her first husband David had one daughter, Brownie. Hazel and her second husband Walt had no children.

Hazel was a housewife.

She lived above her husband Walt's restaurant, Beal's Grill, at 24th and California Streets in Omaha, across the street from Creighton University.

Walt also operated a Beal's Grill at Lake Okoboji, IA, in the summers, closing his Omaha restaurant until college classes resumed in the fall. In the summers, Hazel and Walt lived in one of two lakeside cottages which she owned on Lake Okoboji; the cottages were named "Brown Haze" (for herself and her daughter Brownie). When she died, Hazel bequeathed the cottages to Brownie.

Hazel was a member of St. Ann's Sodality at Creighton University's St. John's Catholic Church.

On Saturday, February 9, 1957, Hazel fractured her leg in a fall on ice. Three weeks later, on Friday night, March 1, 1957, Hazel, 63 years old, died of a blood clot while still hospitalized at Omaha's Doctors Hospital. Her wake with 8:00 p.m. rosary was held at Heafey and Heafey Mortuary in Omaha on March 4. Following an 8:45 a.m. Tuesday, March 5, funeral Mass at St. John's Church, she was buried at Calvary Cemetery, Omaha.
