Chris Hardin

Larry and Gail, I had no idea until this morning, Nov. 15, that Chris had passed away. I am so very sorry and offer my prayers to you both. Chris was a very nice young man as I knew him, a 7th grader in my home room.
Please accept my prayers for your hearts to be comforted as only God can comfort. I love you, Kim

Dearest Mr. & Mrs. Hardin and family and friends, I had the privilege of working with Chris at Austin Peay State University as an adjunct professor in the Theatre & Dance Dept. Chris was such a loving wonderful person and so talented and creative. I loved to joke with him and laugh with him every day at work when I would see him. He will be deeply missed by me and all of his colleagues and students. You and your family will be in my prayers. God bless you with HIS Love, and the "Peace that passeth all understanding".
Sincerely, Rosie Coppedge, APSU, Clarksville, TN

I am so sorry for your loss and am sending up prayers for God's guidance and peace in this time of difficulty.

Chris was one of my best friends. He will be sorely missed! My thoughts and prayers are with Gail and Larry at this hard time and in the future.

Chris was a beautiful soul that brought laughter and joy to all he encountered. He was a wonderfully talented artist and incredible friend. I feel privileged to have had him in my life. He was taken from this world on my birthday, a day that will now never pass without happy thoughts of his life. Sir, you will be missed.

Chris was a wonderful man, a bright spirit, and a pleasure to know. His smile would make anyone smile, and a well-timed comment could fill the room with laughter.

I am honored to have known him while working on my own MFA at UA, and will continue my own artistic pursuits in his memory.

“I have only slipped away into the next room, I am I and you are you. Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Play, smile, think of me. All is well.”

To the Hardin family, I would like to express my deepest sympathy and love. I will always remember the story Chris told about his first commercial for Southeastern meats and his line was something like "mommy I want chicken fingers for dinner." I will miss talking to him on facebook. You and your family are in my prayers. Love Chistal Prewitt
