Thomas Hardy, Jr.

December 4, 1949 — March 29, 2019

Henderson - A Funeral Service will be held at 1:00 pm on Wednesday, April 3, 2019, at Pellerin Funeral Home in Henderson for Thomas Hardy, Jr., 69, who passed away on Friday, March 29, 2019, at his residence. The family requests that visiting hours be observed at the funeral home from 10:30 am until 9:00 pm on Tuesday and continue on Wednesday at 7:00 am until 1:00 pm. A rosary will be prayed at 7:00 pm on Tuesday. Deacon Randy Courville will officiate at the Funeral Service. Interment will follow at St. Michael the Archangel Cemetery in Henderson. Thomas was a boat captain for Delta Towing for several years. He was an avid fisherman and hunter until he became ill with cancer 4 years ago. He loved spending time with family and friends and cooking Cajun food, so if you put the two together, he would say "This is heaven!". Every year for the last 35 years, there was a father and son camp out during the first week of October. Because of his illness, he missed the last two years. Thomas always said that his family was so important to him, as he was to them, and having them by his side gave him the strength and the will to live. He will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved him. He is survived by his loving spouse Dorothy Guidry Hardy; mother, Velma Bergeron Hardy; sons, Guy and Greg Hardy, both of Henderson; daughter, Gretchen Hardy of Henderson; brothers, Wayne Hardy of Breaux Bridge, Russell Hardy of Henderson, and Phillip Hardy and wife Betty of Cecilia; sisters, Linda Guilbeau of Arnaudville and Cindy Hardy of Henderson; granddaughter, Megan McGee; grandson, Benny Vicknair; great granddaughter, Zoey Laneaux; and great grandson, Trey Laneaux. He was preceded in death by his father, Thomas "T-Fra" Hardy, Sr.; maternal grandparents, Cecile and Clemile Bergeron; and paternal grandparents, Edgar Hardy Sr. and Philosia Lormand Hardy. Pallbearers will be Guy Hardy, Wayne Hardy, Linda Guilbeau, Cindy Hardy, Jeremy Guilbeau, and Travis Hardy. The family would like to extend special thanks to Grace Home Health and Hospice of Acadiana for their support and guidance through this difficult time and to the staff of Lourdes Oncology for their continued help and love for Thomas all of these years. Pellerin Funeral Home of Henderson, 1120 Huval St., Henderson, LA , (337-332-2111) is in charge of arrangements.
