She begged me for this whole set… so now she will have it forever.

Thank you sweet baby girl for all the memories. Your laughter, smile, beauty and courage will never be forgotten. Fly high beautiful angel.

Forever blessed to have known such a sweet child. I remember the day you came home from the hospital that cold December in 2003. I held you in my arms and dreamt of having a beautiful little girl just like you. I was lucky enough to be able to watch you for a few months while your parents worked. You never gave me any trouble and was one of the best little babies. I was lucky enough to get to see you again a couple times a few years ago. Again, still the sweetest, beautiful, not so little girl anymore. You looked JUST like your momma, same smile. You didn’t have the world on your shoulders, the world had you on theirs. Life will never be the same for anyone who knew you.  Having our one on one time when you were a baby proved to me that I was going to make it as a mother. The Lord placed me with you so you could teach me, and that you did. I will forever be grateful. It just goes to show what type of person you were. Shine on baby girl.

Hanna, you are very missed from a lot of your love ones.  God has taken back his beautiful angel.  
Love Aunt Danette 

This is one of my favorite memories with Hanna because this was the night we became such good friends. We stayed the night at her dad's house and had the most of fun that night. The very next morning her dad woke us up with breakfast downstairs. It was all of Hanna's friends and Haylee's. We had all just woken up from a full filled night and I just remember how happy I was because I had realized I found my first group of friends. 

Remembering Hanna for the love and light being she was. The girl who made fairy houses in the woods, smiled with compassion, ran around barefoot playing with her ferret like a slinky, listening to old music on her record player, dancing carefree. The girl who chased baby goats and played in the barn,  kept dried flowers, bugs, and shells, a beautiful soul who had wonders of the universe and was loved by many. 

Sharing 1 favorite memory of Hanna would be hard. We had made so many beautiful, crazy, anxious, rambunctious, adventuress memories. She is my best friend and that will continue on. Hanna was never to scared to do anything, she was the type of friend that helped me get out of my comfort zone, I wouldn’t do anything unless it was with her. Literally nothing. She tried her hardest to help me with my social anxiety and never gave up on me when all i would want to do is lay in bed .  I will never forget the many “ firsts” we have experienced together . You will forever be my best friend and I will never forget you my beautiful flower. I hope you now how proud I am of you❤️

hanna was such a beautiful free spirit and she was a very big inspiration for me to be as kind and carefree and loving as she was. i’m grateful for the couple of times i was able to be blessed with your angelic presence 🤍

I still am at a loss of words Hanna. we all miss you dearly. I hope the afterlife is everything you imagined and then some love. #LLH💚❤️‍🩹

Hanna was a beautiful soul from the first time I met her,  when I was having bad day's and couldn't go to the mini Mart to get a fountain pop if this girl would  see me sitting on the porch she would always ask if I needed a pop and bring it back to me.... People forget the little thing's, but sometimes those little thing's mean the world to someone!  She made more impact in 18 year's than most will do in a lifetime of trying! Hanna just had a natural easy going gypsy personality  she's a one in a million 😇♥️

When I moved and Haylee, Hanna, and I spent every thanksgiving and christmas together. I will forever cherish those moments and will forever remember her laughter. 

So sorry for your loss. Sending prayers to you and your family.

Mindi, Chris and family:
Our family is so sorry for your loss. Words cannot describe what you are going through. You are all in our prayers for peace and comfort as well as understanding. A beautiful young lady gone too soon. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Tim & Cindy Neff and family. 

Hi my name is breanna hill. I just wanted to say that Hanna and I may or may not have been close, but Hanna was there for me when I was in my dark times. Hanna even helped me with people bullying me. Hanna was the one who made me the strong person that I am today. Hanna is the one who kept me from committing my life to end. She was the one who kept me on my feet. She was there when no one else was. I’m glad that Hanna was apart of my life and made me the strong person I am today. Thank you Hanna if you are looking over my shoulder or whoever shoulder reading this. All I have to say is thank you for everything you have done for me and you’re the sweetest. You didn’t deserved what happened to you. I love u Hanna and u will be missed and ur in my soul and heart. 

Coaching Hanna in baseball and the fun and uniqueness she brought to the team....

Han was loved everywhere she went, the smile she held was so contagious. The sweet soul she carried will blossom onto everyone she met. 

There’s no way I could ever pick a favorite memory with Hanna. Every moment with her was something to remember. She was my best friend from elementary, through middle school, and into freshman year of high school. While I like to think that we stayed friends throughout high school we definitely grew apart. Still every time we talked and caught up she felt like home to me. She’s someone that I know will always be a part of me no matter where life takes me. Hanna was one of a kind. She wasn’t afraid to stand out and be herself. She was compassionate, spunky, wild, and warm. She would do any and everything for those she cared about and even for those she didn’t know. Whether you knew her well or not she’s someone who could make an impact on you. The world will never feel the same without her but one day we’ll get to see her again and until then let’s all live life to the fullest for her knowing that she’s watching over us. Fly high beautiful🤍🦋

Random trip to Indiana Beach’s photo booth circa Summer 2014. I love how she was willing to play along and let her personality shine!!!

The day she said hey look there's fish over there stuck off came the shoes and away she went thunk she caught 5 or 6 that day with her bare hands 

I remember the day Bobby and Mindy brought her home !!!! I did a lot babysitting! One time I was watching the girls and they got outside on me lol naked as Jay bird on the swing set !! Bobby and Mindy took me in because I had no place to go and it was Christmas time and both girls fell asleep with me in the living room and Hanna loved Ice aged and all night all I heard was where the Baby lol because I didn’t want to wake them 
Love you Mindy and Bobby 

Went to Lake early in season they didn't believe me when I Said it was to cold to swim

She was always smiling … high on life… wanted to get a vw bus and fix it up gypsy style and travel the world… living off the grid… free as a bird. 🧚🏻

I’ve never met this beautiful girl but from what I’ve heard for other & her family, she seemed like such a bright light in the universe. her soul seemed pure and sweet. she was absolutely beautiful. my condolences to her family in this time of grieving. rest in peace sweet girl, im sure you’ll be missed by many
