Dr. Hardee was born April 7, 1938, in Mulberry, Florida. After graduating from Hillsborough High School in Tampa, he served in the Coast Guard. From there, he attended the University of Florida, where he graduated with honors and earned both his master's and doctorate degrees. Dr. Hardee was a member of the mechanical engineering faculty at Colorado State University and a research engineer at Bell Laboratories in Norcross, Georgia. He holds two patents for optical transmission media. A major passion in Guy's life was designing, constructing and flying model airplanes.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to Our Santa Fe River, Inc., to protect the aquifer, springs and rivers of North Florida, where he enjoyed spending time with his family.
