JOHNNIE RENEE HATMAKER

Johnnie Renee Hatmaker, 50, went home to be with the Lord Tuesday, Jan. 25, 2022.

Johnnie was first and foremost a wonderful, loving mother who loved her church and her family. She has been a devoted wife to Daniel Hatmaker for more than 30 years. She was a member of Sequoyah Missionary Baptist Church in Andersonville. Johnnie has dedicated more than 20 years of service to Covenant Health as a senior help desk analyst. Johnnie loved the Lord, and she had a heart of gold. In the last couple of years, she has fought a long and difficult battle with health issues, but no matter how sick she was, you could always find her smiling. She was truly a “fighter.” Johnnie will be remembered for her intelligence and her witty sense of humor and will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing this sweet lady.
