Kevin Hartless Obituary

Kevin Dean Hartless of Amherst, Va., died unexpectedly on January 19, 2023. He was only 49 years old. Family and friends are deeply saddened and shocked by his sudden passing.

Kevin is survived by his loving parents, Leonard and Juanita (Jean) Hartless; his daughter, Britany Hartless; brothers, Dale Hartless (Sharon) and Michael Hartless (Bonnie); his sister, Donna Lash (Alan); and nieces and nephews including Hannah Hartless, Joshua Hartless, Brooke Hodges (Wesley), and Bryan Lang (Tabitha).

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Jerry and Elizabeth Sprouse and Wilson and Ollie Hartless.

Kevin was an avid hunter and fisherman. His love of the outdoors only took second place to his love for his parents.

Kevin's memory, spirit, kindness, laughter, and love of life and nature will carry on forever in the hearts of his family and friends.

There are no words to express how grateful and blessed we are to the neighbors, friends, and our church family for being there during this time of immense pain and loss.

A funeral service will be held at Driskill Funeral Chapel on Friday, January 27, 2023, at 11 a.m. with a one-hour prior visitation. Burial will follow in Amherst Cemetery. Dr. Mike Fitzgerald, the Rev. Clyde Mawyer, and the Rev. Jeffrey Campbell will be officiating. Driskill Funeral Chapel is assisting the family.
