NEALSON CARLOS HANNER

December 2, 1988 September 7, 2021

Nealson went to be with his Lord after a car accident on his way to work. Nealson was born in Bakersfield to Max and Crystal (White). In his younger years he attended schools in Rosedale and played many sports at Shafter Rec. He graduated from Liberty High School and also graduated from CSUB with a degree in business. He studied for his master degree at New Mexico University.

As a kid Nealson's favorite hobbies were remote control cars and planes, and fishing. Cards and horse racing and sports betting were his favorite things lately, he liked to play golf and go fishing, he hardly ever passed up a trip to any casino!

Sports of any kind were his specialty, he was a loyal Green Bay Packers fan and Notre Dame from an early age. He liked the Dodgers and went to many games in L.A. On any given week he could tell you who every team would be playing and who would win, most of the time! Nealson loved to spend time with all of the family, but especially his nieces and nephews. He would never miss the holidays and family events to get together with grandparents and all of his relatives and his friends . Nealson dedicated much of his life to accompany and take care of his mother. He was in angel in times of need and he would sacrifice his time to help others on many occasions for a lot of people. He was the kindest and most caring person and loved any conversation - or dice game!

He met a lot of people when he started working at Rain for Rent, the position he had was making new friends all over the US. That job lead him to his last job and the one he loved the most - the Wonderful Company. He worked at the Hwy 33 offices. He touched a lot of people through that job as well.

Good food and drinks and hospitality at the Pyrenees and Silver Fox -to mention a few - and a trip to the card room - would be a what he did on his weekends. He had a lot of friends.

Nealson is survived by his mother Crystal Hanner and his father Max Hanner and stepmother Karen Hanner, his sister Natasha Berry (Dustin), and brother Nathan Hanner. He also has his step sisters Lacy Rouse (Spencer), Kylee, and Loni Jo Harmon, and stepbrother Kenin Smith, grandparents Jim and Billie Hanner, and Carlos and Pat White. Joy Duke( Karen's mom), and many aunts, uncles, cousins and nieces and nephews. He will be missed by our family and his friends.

Join us for a celebration of Nealson's life, at 2 o'clock on October 4th, 2021 at Greenlawn Mortuary, 2739 Panama Lane, Bakersfield, CA 93313.
