Tributes
George “Steve” Hartman, 70 of Hebron, passed away on September 26, 2022. Steve was born April 18, 1952 to the late George and Mary Hartman. Growing up, Steve was a hard worker and spent countless hours on his family farm. Steve served his community for over 30 years as a Kentucky State Trooper and Boone County Deputy. During his years of service, Steve received the Purple Heart, Governor’s Medal of Valor, and Guthrie Crowe Award which was awarded to an officer who sustains a severe injury in the line of duty. He was also active with the Kentucky State Police Professional Association and Kentucky State Police Retirement Association. Steve was extremely proud of his lawn and would spend his days mowing. In his spare time, he enjoyed playing cards with his family and watching scary movies and telling ghost stories to his grandkids. Steve would meet up with “The Guys” (retired officers and friends) for breakfast and always enjoyed going to Danny’s fish frys. But most of all, he deeply loved his grandchildren and will be truly missed by them.
He was preceded in death by his parents and sister: Julie Hartman-Jones. Steve is survived by his daughters: Jacque (Tim) Leiprecht and Samantha (Alex Lewis) Hartman, grandchildren: Madison, Timmy, Jimmy, and Steven, and sister: Michelle (Guy) Tieke and multiple nieces and nephews and in-laws that remained his family throughout the years.

My deepest sympathy to Steve’s family. I’ve know Steve from his KSP when I was a clerk in Kenton County.. Then Boone County Sheriff Days. He never seemed to have a bad day. I will certainly miss running into him. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

Great man, policeman, and friend. We will all miss you, Steve.
My heart is broken
Our deepest sympathy to Steve’s family. I worked with him at the Boone County Courthouse. There are some people that you work with that become a lot more than a colleague. Steve was like family. He had a heart as big as a house and would do anything to help someone. People don’t typically come to the courthouse for anything good. They’re there because they HAVE to be and often get angry or violent. Steve had a talent for calming them down and even had some of them laughing by the time they left. I was often awe-struck at his ability to connect with people. He often talked about fishing with his grandkids. May the many memories that you all made together get you through the days ahead and know that he left an indelible mark on a lot of us.
Sympathy
Steve was a great guy and always friendly. Prayers coming for his family. RIP buddy
So sorry to hear about Steve’s passing .
Prayers for Steve’s family.
