Gregory Hartsock

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Gregory Allen Hartsock on October 20, 2023, in Charlotte, NC, at the young age of 35. Greg, a beloved son, father, brother, and friend, left this world far too soon, leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and cherished memories.

A memorial service to celebrate Greg's life will be held at 3:00 pm on Sunday, November 12, 2023, at Wilkinson Funeral Home. Friends and family are invited to share their memories and support each other from 2:00-3:00 pm prior to the service.

Greg was born on December 2, 1987, in Concord, NC, to Rhonda Smith Motley and Tom Hartsock. In addition to his parents, he is survived by his daughter, Josephine Marie Lefler-Bacon, and son, River Allen Hartsock. He is also remembered by his sisters, Rhonda Crisp, Lauri Oliver, Shirley Baker and his brothers, Matthew Caton, Trent Smith, and Jeff Baker. Greg was raised by Bailey and Peggy Caton, who provided him with a loving home from the age of four.

Throughout his life, Greg worked in the carpet and floor covering business, demonstrating his dedication and skill in his profession. He had a passion for video games, a trait he shared with his son, River. As a child, he was an exceptional baseball player and held a deep love for the game. However, his greatest joy came from spending time with his children, Josephine and River. He adored them dearly, and their time together was precious to him.

Greg's sudden departure has left a void that cannot be filled, but his memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. As we mourn his passing, let us celebrate the laughter, love, and joy he brought into our lives. May his soul find eternal peace, and may his legacy of love and cherished moments continue to inspire us all. He will be deeply missed and remembered with profound affection.
