“A loss for words, that’s all I know,” said Lavinia Hardy.

Hardy was the one person TMJ4 did catch up with in person early Tuesday afternoon. She was mourning alone in her home. Charles Hardy was her younger brother and the only sibling she had.

She said she's now lonely and broken by the loss.

“I can’t hear his voice no more,” she explained.

Hardy said she’ll miss her brother that she grew up protecting and regrets not having more pictures together. Now she has one saved as her phone’s screen-saver.

Over time, Hardy opened up, walking through the good memories with her younger brother from over the years.
