Mark Andrew Hardy, 49, of Burnet died April 18, 2011, after a yearlong battle with cancer. He was born at Bergstrom Air Force Base in Austin on March 30, 1962.
He married Karen Culp in 1983, and they were blessed with a beautiful daughter.
He moved to Burnet in 1993 when he became the proprietor of Burnet Auto Salvage. He worked hard to build a successful business and was president of the Kolt line as well as an active board member of the Texas Automobile Recycling Association.
He enjoyed remodeling homes, spending time with his dogs and anything related to Germany, where he lived for five happy years during his childhood. Survivors include his wife of 27 years Karen Hardy; daughter Sharon Lynn Hardy; parents Janet and George Knapik of Austin; sister Janet Jones of Norman, Okla.; brother Phillip Hardy of Austin; sister Gail Hardy and husband Wes Short of Austin; sister Lisa Hardy of Austin; and several nieces and other family members. He was preceded in death by his father Roy Hardy.
The family thanks Keith Nelson for keeping everything going for them at the shop in the past year; all their neighbors on "the hill" for everything they have done to help; and the employees of the Texas Attorney General’s Office for the blood drive and support. Visitation is noon April 21 at Clements-Wilcox Funeral Home, 1805 U.S. 281 North in Marble Falls, (830) 693-4373. A service follows visitation at 2 p.m. in the funeral home, with interment afterwards at Lakeland Hills Memorial Park.
