Hazen was born and raised in Lewiston, Utah. He met Rosa May Call while she was teaching school in Lewiston. They married in Salt Lake City, Utah on January 3, 1923. Hazen and Rosa wanted him to serve a mission because of what he would learn and what it would mean to their family later. Rosa agreed to continue teaching and keep him on the mission. Hazen was called to the California Mission and spent most of his two years in the San Diego area. He served from February 27, 1923 to March 31, 1925. The last six months of Hazen's mission, Rosa was called to join him.

When they returned home to Lewiston they lived in his parents' old home. Hazen farmed, they worked in Church callings, and raised a family. Hazen served for 14 years as a Bishop. Eventually they retired and moved to Logan. Hazen was serving as a temple officiator when he and Rosa were called on a two-year mission to New England. They served in Nova Scotia where Hazen served as branch president. Truman Madsen was their mission president.

After two years Hazel and Rose returned to Logan when he returned to the temple as an officiator. Hazen also taught Gospel Doctrine in the Sunday School and he went the farm about three days each week. Family members came to stay while they attended the University.

Hazen died January 30, 1975. He was recovering from prostate surgery when he developed pneumonia which caused his death.
