Hattie was in the Indiana National Guard for eight years until he decided to work alongside his father at Bagley Electric in Plymouth. Hattie was the electrician for numerous companies and churches in the area, as well as the city of Plymouth.
Hattie was known for his wit and humor and his absence leaves a deep void for all his family and friends. His children and grandchildren especially adored him and his ornery nature. We hope that he’s on a stage in Heaven right now doing what he loved and making people laugh.
Private family services will be held.
