Heather E. Hardison
Heather Elizabeth Hardison, 40, of Greenville, SC, passed away on Tuesday, May 12, 2026. Born in Mount Pleasant, SC, she was the beloved daughter of Steven B. Weems and Karen Hughes Weems.
In addition to her parents, Heather is survived by her three cherished children, Ava Kennedy Hardison, Kyndal Reece Hardison, and Finley King Hardison; her sister, Anna McMickin (Curtis); and her loving niece and nephew, Marley and Dawson McMickin.
Heather loved the beach, being pampered, and curling up with a good movie. More than anything in this world, she loved her children deeply and fiercely. She had a contagious laugh, a beautiful smile that could brighten any room, and a presence that brought comfort and warmth to those around her. Heather will be remembered for her love of family, her kind heart, and the joy she brought to the lives of so many.
A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, May 30, 2026 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm at Simpsonville Upstate First Baptist in the North Auditorium. Please stop by at your convenience to send condolences to the family.

A pain so deep for those that loved her! So tragic and sad.
May the family comfort each other today and always.
May a special comfort come to my friend Karen, Heather’s mom. We have been friends for a very long time. I personally can’t make the service; however, Kim Haefelin is coming to represent Sumter!
Hugs to all!
There are some people who leave a mark on your heart and soul that time can never erase, and she was one of those people for me. She carried a beautiful light within her, and even through life’s struggles, I will always remember how incredibly special she was — her smile, her heart, and the way she could make others feel loved.
My deepest condolences go out to her family and everyone grieving this tremendous loss. She was loved, she mattered, and she will not be forgotten. All of Florence mourns.
