On March 12, 2021, at 7:55 p.m., Jason Lee Hatton passed away. He was born on June 8, 1988, to Joseph Johnson, Sr., and to Sandra K. Hatton. Jason was a lifelong resident of Marion and was 32 years old.
Jason was a great fiancé, father, son, brother, nephew, cousin, grandson, and friend. He was a great mechanic and plumber and such a hard worker. He was a master mechanic and began working as a mechanic at a young age. He felt he needed a change with employment, especially with a growing family. Jason accepted a job with Kennedy’s Heating and Air, and this is where his new journey for many great things began. He loved his new career and was making big changes in his life.
Jason loved his family unconditionally and enjoyed time spent with his fianceé, Koree Young, and their children. He loved getting together with his cousins for camping and sitting by the fire laughing and telling stories. Jason was definitely a family man. His life was cut short so unexpectedly. We will miss Jason and cherish the memories we have.

Hatton of Gas City; fianceé, Koree Young of Marion; brothers, James Hatton and Joseph Johnson, Jr.; sister, Mandy Johnson; sons, Kason Hatton, Calin Hatton, and Dracen McCall; daughters, BriElla Young and GraceLynn Hatton; grandmother, Carolyn Sanders; several aunts, uncles, and cousins; special aunt, Julie Sanders; and special uncle, Fred L.
