She thought of gardening as her therapy, and, as a lifelong learner, loved to read.

Hardison and husband Don of Chapel Hill and La Jolla, CA, two grandchildren, Donnie McCoy Hardison, III and wife Jennifer of Los Angeles, John Christopher Hardison of Philadelphia, PA, a great granddaughter, Taylor Alexandra Hardison of Los Angeles, a brother, Archie Revels of Plymouth, a sister, Mary Dare Bowen of Williamston, and many nieces and nephews.
