Dr. Hacthett was my favorite Doc to work with in the OR. He never raised his voice in anger at any of the nurses that worked his cases. Though I have been gone from Florence for 12 years, I never forgot him and his kindness to me and my family. He will be in my prayers for a long time.

The first surgery I ever watched as a new student nurse was a hip replacement by Dr. Hatchett. I never forgot how kind he was to me as a student and later as a nurse in the local hospitals.
My deepest condolences to his family.

I am saddened to learn of Frank's death. While I have not seen or communicated with him in many years I am familiar with and knowledgeable of him and his family from the years he lived in Columbiana. Please accept my very sincere sympathy and condolences.

Our deepest sympathy to the daughters, relatives, and friends of Dr. Frank. He was an exceptional person in many ways. He always had a great smile and his "dry" sense of humor made you keep on your toes. He and Ms. Jeannie were pillars of the contemporary service at Northwood UMC. Their love for each other, Northwood, and their many friends made them memorable to all those that their lives touched. May they both rest in peace!

Beth, Anna and Suzanne, Keith and I are so sorry for your loss. Your dad was such a special man. I have so many wonderful memories with him from my childhood and am so thankful that I was able to visit with him just a little over a year ago. I pray that you will experience God's comfort and peace in the days to come.
