Jon Hardin Obituary
He was the cherished son of Benny Hardin and the late Nancy Hardin, and the step-son to Shirley Hardin. Jon brought immense joy to his brothers, Jerry and James Hardin of Austin, and his sister, Lynne Hardin of New Orleans, Louisiana, and his step-brother, Brad Wares of Round Rock, Texas.
Jon attended Rosedale School in Austin. Jon's life was always upbeat and joyful with his smiles and blue eyes in the face of his life's challenges. The family takes comfort in knowing that he is now walking and talking for the first time in Heaven.
The family wishes to thank all those individuals in the Group Homes and Marbridge Villa who cared for and loved Jon thru the many years.
