Timothy Scott Hardy

Timothy Scott Hardy, dedicated husband, father, “Pop”, brother, uncle, coach and friend passed away peacefully at his residence in Prosper, Texas, at age 59, on Friday, July 22, 2022.
Tim was born in Port Arthur, Texas to Minos Hardy and Ruby Trahan on January 23rd, 1963. He graduated from Barbers Hill High School in 1982, where he met his wife, Robin. Tim began his career as a police officer alongside his brothers in Abbeville, Louisiana, where he received the “Officer of the Year” award and was granted the nickname of “the Rook”. He then worked for EDS in Atlanta, Georgia and Plano, Texas in security and project management.
Tim later attended the University of North Texas and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. He then started his career in teaching and coaching, where he served at Prosper ISD, McKinney ISD, and Gunter ISD for a total of 18 years and received Secondary Teacher of the Year for Prosper ISD in 2013.
He was passionate about his work and his positivity inspired those around him. He will be remembered by all of his inspirational quotes, but most of all “Everyday’s a Holiday”.
In his personal life, you could always find Tim on a field, under a car, or in a gym. He loved sitting in the front yard with his brothers, working on various projects, or sitting on the deck at the beach drinking coffee. There was never a project that was presented to Tim that he could not find a solution to. He will be remembered as a kind, hard-working, passionate man that would do anything for his family.
Tim is survived by his wife of 36 years, Robin Hardy; children, Megan Letsos and husband, Nick of Plano, Texas, Brian Hardy and wife, Kym of Melissa, Texas, and Courtney Hardy of Melissa, Texas; grandchildren, Riley, Wyatt, Beckett, Kinsley, Kade and Bentley; stepmother, Mary Neva Hardy; and brothers, Mike Hardy (Janise), Chris Hardy (Kim), Tony Hardy, and Pat Hardy (Liz); sisters-in-law, Kelly Hardy and Gay Hargrave; and a host of nieces and nephews.
