July 26, 2023So many wonderful memories, – amazing camping trips to Hawley, flying over the train tracks in the Lazer, your lemon pancakes, picking Linda and I up from Nappy Night, and sitting around the dinner table having a laugh – just to make a few.

Fly high Mr Hardy ❤️Ian was a kind, caring, humble man who was so passionate about going that extra mile to help those in need. He had that knack to just get things done.
Personally we talked about his travels to WA and those hot pies…
The world has lost a quite hero. Ian came through East Gippsland helping many a person in dire straits, no fuss, no fan fare just went for a drive and pulled over to have a chat and offer support. He did this in spades and with love.I am gutted for your loss, Sheila’s and all your family.
May you now rest in peace Ian, it was my privilege to have known you and see how much good one person can achieve.
An absolute legend who lived to love.
