Julie Gregson Hardy

Julie Gregson Hardy passed away unexpectedly on August 31st, 2025, leaving behind a legacy of love, creativity, and joy that will live on in the hearts of her family and friends. Born on May 4, 1960, to Gordon and Betty Gregson as one of seven children, Julie grew into a woman of resilience and warmth, remembered by many as spirited, loving, and deeply cherished. Julie's greatest pride was her family. She is survived by her three children: Jayde Wright Beric and husband Idriz, Skylar Wright and wife Tonya, and Brandon Wright and wife Shannon, along with her beloved grandchildren Jordan, Landon, Payton, Olive, Dino and Liam. She also shared 13 wonderful years with her companion, Dave McCurdy. In addition, she embraced her stepchildren, Cole, Summer, and Court Hardy, whom she raised with love as her own. Julie had a zest for life and an incredible gift for seeing the best in everyone. Her laugh was infectious, her hugs full of warmth, and her encouragement unwavering. She was her children's biggest cheerleader and taught them to love deeply, commit fully, and never do anything halfway. Creative to her core, Julie had an extraordinary eye for art and woodworking. She could see beauty and possibility in places others might overlook, and just like with her family, she poured her passion into everything she created. Beyond her talents, Julie was a light in any room she entered, she listened with her whole heart and always offered advice that was thoughtful and grounding. Though Julie faced her share of struggles, she never let them overshadow her love for others. She gave generously of herself, cared deeply, and found ways to lift those around her. Julie's sudden passing leaves an unfillable void, but her spirit, love, and laughter will live on in her children, grandchildren, and all those fortunate enough to have known her. She will be missed beyond words.
