He is survived by his loving daughter, Rochelle Hatten Massey (Aaron), and three beautiful granddaughters: Erin Nicole South (Tommy), Kristen Renee’ Massey, and Kayla Elise' Massey. He was also blessed with three great-grandchildren: Colton, Hayes, and Natalie South. Mr. Hatten is also survived by his brothers, Fred Lamar Hatten and Edward Earl Hatten; his sister, Patsy Lanmon (Marvin); and many cherished nieces and nephews. A proud veteran of the United States Air Force, Mr. Hatten served as a cook on the front lines during the Korean War. After his active-duty service, he continued his dedication to country in the 172nd Air National Guard in Jackson, Mississippi. Alongside his military service, he worked as a clerk for the GM&O Railroad, which later became part of the ICG Railroad, where he retired after 32 years of faithful service. Mr. Hatten was a devoted father, loyal friend, and a man who valued hard work and a simple life. His faith was his foundation, and he looked forward with joy to the day he would meet Jesus. Now, that joy is fulfilled.
