He had many close cousins in many states. Ones he saw often in Lakeport were Hugo, Ramona, Juanita, Moses, Leia and Ken.
Hardy’s sudden passing of a heart attack has left his family and many friends heartbroken and in shock. He will be deeply missed also by pets he rescued, Torpedo the “Schipperke dog” and Pocket the “calico Main Coon” who was a tiny kitten that jumped in his pocket in Lake County, so of course he had to bring her home.
Hardy will be remembered for his kind heart, adventurous spirit and constant curiosity about all areas of nature. His home was always open to friends. He and Barbara traveled to many far away places so he always had new stories to share.
A memorial gathering will be planned later and details posted on - Hardy Antonio Nieto's Memorial Website | Ever Loved …. https://everloved.com/life-of/hardy-nieto/ .
