Larry J. Hardy

Larry and I met at Ernst & Young more than 30 years ago. He was a terrific person and became more than just an EY colleague when we both retired to Naples---he became a very nice friend. We would have breakfast or lunch together occasionally at a local restaurant when we were both in Naples. Larry handled his health issues with amazing grace and positivity. When we first started having our annual breakfast, Larry was fairly mobile, but as the years went on, his challenges became more...

I’ve known Mr. Hardy for the past 20 years or so as I was his housekeeper. He was always so pleasant and down to earth. I very much enjoyed our visits. I can still picture him checking his phone calendar to schedule our next cleaning. I’ll miss you Mr. Hardy but Im thankful you may now rest in peace. I send my warmest thoughts and prayers to John, his family and friends.

Larry was a great neighbor and a good friend. I will miss our breakfast dates and the interesting discussions we had. He was bright and articulate and loved to talk about all things 'Ole Miss. Rest in peace!

Larry and us have been friends since childhood. His father was our pastor for years while growing up. My family loved the Hardy family dearly. We are saddened by his departure but know well his deep faith. We are praying for John and family. (Ronnie, Monty and Nancy Mitchell)

Larry was a personal and valued friend of mine for over fifty years and he will be missed. Larry cared about everyone and was of the highest integrity. My sympathy and prayers for comfort to John, Kea, Jessica, Jordon, Donna Wade, Margaret Hardy and to Larry's many friends and associates.

We love and miss you so very much Dad!
