Sylvia Garcia Hardy

Sylvia was born in San Antonio and attended Brackenridge High School. Afterwards she began her 35 year Civil Service career. It was at Lackland Air Force Base where she met a young airman, Aubrey Gene Hardy. They were married on March 19, 1966 and have been together 45 years.

As a military wife, she began her travels, continued to work and began her family. She has two children, Cathy and Michael.

She is preceded in death by her parents and two brothers. She is survived by her husband, Aubrey; two children; two grandchildren, Sarah and Katie, and her sister, Maria Johnson of Minnesota.

In the ups and downs of her life, she held steady in her love and devotion to her family.

Goodbye for now, Mom. We love you and will miss you. We will strive to live our lives so we may see you again someday. The last several years have been your cross to bear, and Dad was always right there by your side. Even as we have seen the struggle, we can be assured, life is good. But to her death, we don't think it's an end, but that it is a new beginning. Now, Mom, Rest.

The family will receive friends from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, January 15, 2012 at Porter Loring Mortuary North.
