He departed this life late Thursday night, March 24, 2022, at the Select Specialty Hospital in Jackson, MS. Mr. Hartzog could be best described as a family man. He would bend over backwards to make sure his family was provided for and that they were happy. The dearest thing on this earth to him was his precious grandchildren. Mr. Hartzog was retired as an E6 Staff Sergeant in the Army National Guard. He was very proud of his military service and went on to work at L 3 in Gluckstadt, MS, where he manufactured parts for military aircraft. In keeping with this training as a Staff Sergeant, it was characteristic of Mr. Hartzog to speak his mind...and then convince you to agree with him. In addition, Mr. Hartzog loved to watch Westerns, especially those featuring the iconic John Wayne and liked to fish. Mr. Hartzog was a member of Calvary Baptist Church in Silver Creek, MS. Mr. Hartzog was preceded in death by his parents, Homer, Jr. and Zella Mae Hartzog; his wife, Cathy Thornton Hartzog; the mother of his children, Cookie Hartzog Becton; a brother, Eddie Hartzog; his son, Sean Hartzog and his daughter, Crystal Hartzog. His memory will forever be cherished by his sons, Denis Ray Hartzog, Jr. (Crystal) of Silver Creek, Jacob Hartzog of Savannah, GA; 2 daughters, Skyler Austin (Joseph) of Rincon, GA, Amber Wells of Amarillo, TX; 1 brother, Ronnie Hartzog (Deb) of PA, 1 sister, Cindy Hartzog Richardson of Johnson City, TN; grandchildren, Xan Hartzog, Charleen Kay Hartzog, Ash Hartzog, Elizabeth Austin, Conner Austin, Jacob Wells, Heavenly Wells and a host of extended family.
