In addition to her parents, Hattie was preceded in death by her husband Bobby, a son Jackie, and two brothers Buck and Pete. Hattie was a homemaker and enjoyed her flower beds and house plants, vegetable and fruit gardening, canning, cooking and crafting. In addition to her love of Christ and serving in her Church prior to her illness, Hattie will be remembered best for her cooking abilities, making sure everyone had enough even when she may have lacked much herself, and never losing her faith during her health issues. Surviving are four of her children and their families; her sons Eddie Thompson of Eastover, SC, Timmy Thompson and wife, Angie, of Covington, and Alvin Thompson and Angie Shumaker of Covington, her daughter, Melissa Humphries, and her fianc, Larry Basham, of Nimitz, WV, whom she dearly loved as a son.

In addition to sisters and brothers in law on Bobby's side of the family, she was blessed with many nieces and nephews who were also dearly loved. A dear friend over the past few years Alice H., her walking partner, Frances Thompson, and members of Moss Run Baptist Church were all special friends to her. The family would like to thank her extended family at The Springs Nursing Center for providing care and comfort but most importantly love to Hattie following her admittance.
