of Conway, AR
June 4, 2004 - September 8, 2025
Hannah Katherine Ghidotti, 21, of Conway, Arkansas went to be with the Lord, September 8, 2025. She was born on June 4, 2004 in Little Rock, Arkansas to Michael and Karen Ghidotti.
You were and will always be a radiant blessing to all that love you. In your 21 short, brilliant years, you left a trail of joy, love, laughter and a bit of chaos. You gathered a beautiful following of souls that will always treasure the light you brought into their world.
From the start, you would make so many unique faces, we began to say you were ''Hannahlizing'' because you looked like you were pondering over some of the great mysteries in life, to your playful adventures outside with your dad you kept us smiling and laughing. You were never afraid to discover new things.
We watched in awe as you grew! Whether soaring through the air in competitive cheer or creating through your artistic vision, you chased life with passion. You were never still, never done discovering. Your journey was a living work of art and Pablo Picasso's quote: ''Art is chaos taking shape'', sums up how you lived life. You are a masterpiece of love, now finished, perfected by God, he is receiving you home.
It gives us peace you developed a deep and enduring relationship with God early in life, a foundation that held steady through life's highs and lows, joys and storms. You loved deeply and your love reached beyond words and into souls. Your journey was shaped by your trust and love of God, the people that crossed your path and became part of your tribe, the art you created and all the fur babies you loved.
Now in heaven, you are embraced by those who have gone before you. We imagine you resting again in Granny Lola Ghidotti's lap, meeting your Grandpa Reno Ghidotti with a warm, joyful hug. Perhaps stopping to watch some westerns with Ray Dalsanto. Also, in heaven waiting to embrace you, Grandma and Grandpa Hagerty and Grandpa Jim Harvey.
Those of us still here, wrapped in the comfort of God's love, carry your memory forward:
Your loving parents, Karen and Mike Ghidotti.
Your Memaw and Pop, Nola and Neil Gibbs.
Your Nana and Papaw, Gilda and Leroy Dycus.
Your Grandmother Ruth Harvey
Your Aunts Rene and Kathleen, Uncles Richard and Laren.
Your cousins: Hayden, Thomas, Emma, Cole, Amber, McKenzie, Logan, Mae, Mikayla
Your beloved fiancé, Ty Huger and his family.
And your loyal pack of fur companions, Nova, Stella, Luna, Apollo, Toasty and Coco.
Hannah, your light remains etched in every heart you touched.
Visitation: Friday, September 19th, 6pm to 8pm, Friendship Baptist Church, Conway, AR.
Services: Saturday, September 20th, 10am, Friendship Baptist Church, Conway, AR.
Interment: Kennerly Cemetery, Roland, Arkansas.
Donations can be made to the Hannah Ghidotti Memorial Scholarship Fund through the Tony Bennett Memorial Foundation. Hannah used art as therapy to help her get through some rough times.

Hannah, you were such a bright light in my life and I will cherish every memory I have with you. Every time I saw you I always got a run and a jump for my hug. I remember picking you up from school and helping with homework and taking pictures together outside. You’ll be my birthday buddy forever. I will miss you for the rest of my life but I know I’ll get to see you again one day and you’ll have to show me around! ❤️

I have no doubt in my mind that Hannah made her mark in this world, in an unfairly short amount of time. Her creative brain and cool girl taste, her intuitive thinking, and strong sense of self are just a few of the qualities I admired most in her. Growing up I was always so excited for the time we spent together, a break from all the boys. We’d spend hours playing with our American Girl Dolls or building toy train tracks as big as the living room. We watched makeup videos on YouTube, bonding over the art of makeup. I would laugh every time she’d ask aunt Karen for her glass of warm milk before bed or a jar of pickled okra for a snack (although I admit she got me with that one).
As we got older I had the pleasure to watch her grow into a smart, beautiful, and loving person. From watching her tumble in gymnastics and telling me she wanted to do competitive cheer, to riding with her, my mom, and aunt Karen to cheer competitions (the crowds made me nervous and I was in them). Of course I can’t forget the Disney trips either and hannah helping me figure out I’m the only family member that isn’t a fan of roller coasters. I remember when she told me she was going to SCAD, and although I was not surprised, I was still so proud of her for chasing her dreams without hesitation. When we all got old and spread apart, Hannah always made sure to bring us together for Christmas. Last year hannah sent us the link to assign our secret santa, and I got Ty. Of course, she knew he wasn’t going to put any ideas on the app for me so she called to give me the heads up and a few ideas to make sure everything was as it should be. Making the group chats for secret Santa, helping memaw with the stockings, let’s be honest the glue of our scattered communication skills.
Hannah banana, I still can’t believe you aren’t here anymore. Our family will never be the same without you. I love you so so much, and would give anything to tell you that one more time. Rest in peace precious, I will see you again when I join you for the good part. Until then, I’ll be sending my hugs through the sky. Xoxo

Hannah, I am so glad I was able to grow up with you and make so many amazing memories. The difference you made in so many people’s lives is immense. I look back at all the trips we went on and all the amusement park rides we rode together with joy. I don’t regret the time we spent together. You will always be hold a special place in my heart. I miss you now and forever.

Aunt Karen and Uncle Mike, I love you both so much and you mean so much to me. I will always remember when Hannah used to chase me around the house trying to hug me. Every time I saw her she would jump on me and tell me how much she loved and missed me. She was an incredible artist and an even better person. I’m so thankful for Hannah and the lasting impression she had on so many people.
Hannah, I love you so much and I will miss you everyday. I want you to know I will always be thinking about you.

Hannah, you accomplished so much at such a young age. You were an incredibly talented artist and a master at any craft or crochet project. One of the most creative and confident souls I’ve ever had the chance of knowing. I’m so grateful to have received a crochet lesson by you on our trip this summer, sitting across from eachother in the RV. You were so patient with me and refused to let me give up! I loved going thrifting with you and seeing all the gems you pulled. I learned so much about you on our trip together, and it hurts knowing how much we will miss out on without you here. I’m incredibly thankful to have called you family and a friend. We will love and miss you, always.

Michael and wife, MY heart hurts for what you are walking through! I know my God has you two in the palm of his loving hands. I,too saw my 13 yr.old son make his sudden, unexpected death in basketball practice on Nov.16, 1992. He was gone to his heavenly home in an instant. He was a fine Christian and his life left no question where he went. Your precious daughter will be there waiting for you to reunite some day. I can tell you God will be with you every hour of every day.. Lean on ho”

Hannah- I remember teaching you how to do a back handspring on the trampoline; and creating fused glass plates for Christmas; and tagging along to shop for prom dresses to help break the tie if you liked one and Karen liked another; and getting you and Karen hooked on estate sales and thrifting. I feel honored to have shared so many of your passions. Then to see your tumbling turn into high-flying stunts, and your kid crafts turn into a SCAD scholarship, and your prom dresses turn into wedding dress shopping. To watch you grow into a beautiful, talent young lady with a heart as big as the sky… it’s been a blessing. Your mom is my forever-friend, and you will always be my forever-angel. May your light continue to shine through the memories you leave with us and the legacy that carries on. Love you, sweet child. 💜 michele

We met Hannah a few times when we visited Neil and Nola. Her smile and enthusiasm leave a smile on our hearts. We remember her as Hannah Banana. Heaven is richer for her presence but she leaves a huge hole in the hearts she left behind in this world. Thank you Hannah for the smile you give us. To all of Hannah's family, allow the Lord's gentle grace to enter your wounded Spirit. In God's love.
