Mrs. Hardage was born in Acworth to the late Jesse and Caldonia McCutcheon Compton. Having moved from Marietta, she had lived in Perry since 1994. She was a member of First Baptist Church of Perry and the Willing Workers Sunday School Class. Known for her many talents, Mrs. Hardage was very creative and was always working with some type of crafts. She loved to crochet and paint on china, both which she did very well. She was a wonderful "Granny" to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, with whom she treasured every moment spent. She was preceded in death by her loving husband of many years, Gene Hardage; 5 brothers; and 4 sisters.
