Remembering Greg

A life held close in memory

Greg Hawthorne was a 31-year-old member of the Hattiesburg community whose life touched the people around him. Public records and local reporting identify him as a resident of Cypress Avenue in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. While the public record about Greg is limited, what is clear is that he was known locally and that his loss in September 2018 affected those who knew him.

Greg lived in a close-knit city where neighbors and family ties often shape daily life. Sources show he was a young man with roots in Hattiesburg; he was identified by police and local news outlets after his death on September 23, 2018. That date is the defining public fact available and is respectfully noted here.

Because no family-published obituary or funeral-home notice matching his name and the exact date of death is available in the public record that could be located, details such as his birthplace, education, employment, and specific family relationships are not confirmed here. Rather than speculate, this remembrance holds to verified facts and honors Greg by acknowledging him as a person whose presence mattered beyond the brief public accounts of his death.

Those who cared for Greg — family, friends, neighbors — will best know the everyday things that gave him shape: the routines, the friendships, the small kindnesses. Even where public details are sparse, the certainty remains that a life ended leaves family and community to grieve and remember. This page is intended as a quiet place to acknowledge Greg Hawthorne’s life and to offer a simple expression of respect for his memory.
