Mrs. Hardnett taught my son almost 40 years ago. She was the stern, firm but very loving teacher he needed at the time and for that I am grateful. My condolences to the family.

Helen is more precious than silver and she had a heart of gold. Helen, you are missed so much. From the day you took your flight from us to be with the Lord, you have been on my mind. Love you very much.
