Hazel Barnes

Hazel Barnes, a bright soul who touched the hearts of her loved ones, passed away on June 25, 2024. Born in Gainsville, FL, on September 27, 2023, she brought immense joy and happiness during her time with us.

From the moment she entered this world, Hazel's infectious laughter and playful spirit filled her family's home with warmth. She had a special bond with her mama and found true bliss in playing, talking, laughing, and smiling in her mother's loving presence – truly Hazel was a good and happy baby.

Hazel is now reunited with her great-grandmother, Wanda Tanton, who watches over her from above with eternal love.

She leaves behind a heartbroken family including her father, Christopher Barnes; devoted mother, Alexus Tanton; caring siblings Gracelynn and Michael Barnes; as well as Crystal Faught, Jamie Irvan, Belinda Irvan, Kyle Faught, Kylie Phillips, Katie White, Melissa Lacko, Mia White, Jolean White and Iris Turk. Hazel also leaves behind many other loving family members who will forever cherish the memories created with this precious angel.

Though her time with us was short-lived, Hazel's beautiful spirit will continue to shine brightly in the hearts of all those who had the privilege of knowing and loving her.

Rest in peace, sweet Hazel. You will be deeply missed and forever cherished. Fly high among the angels.
