Dustin Aaron Hardman

I had the privilege of working with Dustin at Berendsen Fluid Power and found him to be always willing to support and teach our sales team. I found Dustin to be one of the most interesting people I have ever meet. I was just thinking of him this past week . He is missed.

I used to work with Dustin at Berendsen. I worked with him for just a short time. Over the years I often thought about Dustin, and wondered what he was doing. I always found a smile on my face when I thought about him.
He took me up in a rented airplane and showed me what weightlessness felt like. He was a great pilot.
He and I were stuck on I-15 in stop and go traffic in his Corvette in the middle of the summer and no air conditioning. After that, I was convinced that I did not want a Corvette of my own.
He always told me exactly what he thought. That's what I really liked about Dustin.
Dustin was the only guy I know that kept an airplane in his back yard!:)
I'm sad and shocked to hear about all of this. I often wanted to get in touch with him again.

Dear Laura and children, What a wonderful father and Husband Dustin was. I worked with him for years with him located in St.Louis. I had the honor working with him for years. My wife Jan and I are sorry to hear about you're sudden loss. He had such a zest for life and In many ways I looked up to him.

Laura

I am so sorry to hear about Dustin. My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family at this time.

I did not stay in touch with Dustin, but I have amazing memories growing up with him. His was always a few steps ahead of everyone. Intelligent, confident, and content with his life, he seemed to be immune to the drama around him. I still remember his laugh and am thankful for the good times- camouflaging his jeep with latex house paint, building a fighting robot from a skill saw, can opener, and barbecue, taping grass hoppers to bottle rockets.

Laura, so sorry to hear about Dustin. It's hard to hear about an old friends passing. especially at our age. I've 'talked' to a couple of friends from school, and our thoughts are with you. We're here for you if you need someone to talk to.

I cannot express in words how shocked I was to hear of Dustin's passing. He was one of my best friends as a kid. He was a great person and friend. My dearest condolences to Laura and the childern, and also to Carol and Norm. May God be with you and your family at this time. I'm truly sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed.

Deeply tragic news. Prayers for peace and comfort to those who loved Dustin. Margo Edwards, St. Louis MO

Laura,
I am so sadden about the passing of my friend Dustin. We had lunch together at least once a month when he was in town. I cannot believe that he is gone. During my time with Berendsen, he was one of my "Go To" guys. He always had an answer for me. He will be dearly missed. If there is anything that Cynthia and I can do, please let us know. You are in our thoghts and prayers.

Mike and Cynthia Henson

Laura and Family, What an amazing friend Dustin was to us. I can't believe we have to say good-bye to him- he was always so full of life and love. We will miss our regular dinners together, trips to Belize, concerts, plays... So much fun. Our hearts are broken. Wish I could give him one last hug and thank him for his generous heart. He gave our family so much joy. Miss him so much already. Praying for all who loved him- especially for Laura, Alan, Amy, Abby and his parents.. Warm Regards, Sheri Boelter

May your memories of such a fine, brilliant young man bring peace to you in your sorrow. With our love and sincerest sympathy, Marlene Norcross and family

My heart is heavy with the passing of Dustin. My brother and he were the best of friends growing up. He was like a second little brother to me. My thoughts go out to Norm, Carol and the entire family. Thank you Dustin for being a part of my life. You will be missed.

Laura and children,

Sweet Carol
I am soooo sorry to hear about the passing of your son. If there is anything I can do for you let me know. my prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Laura and children, Shocked and deeply saddened to hear of Dustin's passing. He was such a great friend and incredibly wonder talent with his engineering and craftsmanship he and we in the airplane world shared. I will miss this young man greatly.

Linda and I offer our most sincere condolences to Dustin's family. I know what a spark he was to our group in St. Louis many years ago and I know he will be deeply missed now.

I was sadden and heart broken to hear of Dustin's passing. The world is a lesser place today. My heartfelt prayers go out to Laura, Alan, and the reset of the family.

Die Nachricht von Deinem Tod hat unsere Familie tief erschuettert, meine Tante - die Du nie kennengelernt hast, meine Mutter und mich - in 2002 eine unvergessliche Reise erleben konnten mit Dir, ja und Ich - den heftigen Streit um meine Benzinrechnung - Du hattest Deinen Spaß dabei, das spielen im Pool - Dein Kajak und Deine Hobbies, Deine ganze Art die eigentlich immer wundervoll war und uns alle aufleben liess.

Du warst ein ganz besonderer Mensch, den wir jetzt alle vermissen werden. In schweren Zeiten konnten wir Dir leider nicht beistehen, Dein Tod hat uns sehr tief getroffen - weil Du einfach nur einzigartig warst...

Dein Lothar, die ganze Familie und Tante und Onkel

Laura, The news of Dustins passing is difficult to comprehend. We are praying for you and the kids!

Saddened to learn of your loss.
May Dustin RIP.

Dear Laura and children,
I always remeber the short time you guys lived in St. Louis and Dustin worked for me at Berendsen. What an amazing man I had the privilege of getting to know. I pray that you and the kids will be able to seek God's will in the passing of your husband and father. My prayers will be with you always.

Thank you for sharing Dustin.
My membrances go back to the mid-90's of a person I would describe a "blowtorch" and not a candle, and I liked him immediately.
I never stopped and today is a sad shock.
Our condolences,
Kurt and Cheri Erickson
