Hartance Lundy Hearn, 88, passed away peacefully on Sunday, December 24, 2023, after an extended illness. Graveside Services will be held on Saturday, December 30, 2023, in Pine Crest Cemetery in Citronelle, Alabama, where she will be laid to rest beside her beloved husband, Henry. In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully requests memorial contributions to Cross Point Baptist Church, 645 Perry Parkway, Perry, GA 31069.

Hartance was born on January 2, 1935, in Leakesville, Mississippi, to the late Henry and Myrtle Lundy. After high school, she worked as a Clerk/Typist with Civil Service. In 1966, Hartance moved to Perry where she worked as a Secretary at Kellwood Company, a textile manufacturer. After some time, she bought The Tastee Freeze and enjoyed every day of owning an ice cream business. She spent most days visiting with kids of all ages who stopped in for cold treats – travelers and locals, alike. Hartance was a long-time, active member of Cross Point Baptist Church.

Hartance was preceded in death by her parents; her loving and devoted husband of forty-eight years; her sisters, Willie C. Trenecosta, Marcella Fleming, and Myrtle Bell Lundy; and her brother, Curtis Lundy.

Left to cherish the memories they made with Hartance are her children, Brenda Logan of Hawkinsville, Michael Hearn (Debbie) of Fort Valley, Pamela Davis (Greg) of Perry, and Bruce Hearn (Darlene) of Byron; seven grandchildren; fifteen great-grandchildren; and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

Hartance will be deeply missed, but her memory will forever be etched in the hearts of everyone she touched. She leaves behind a beautiful legacy of love, laughter, and kindness.
