Jane Morcom Hardin

Jane Morcom Hardin, age 83, passed away peacefully November 9, 2020 due to complications from Alzheimer’s. She was born December 12, 1936 in Louisville, KY to Stanley Morcom and Kathryn Morcom at their home in the Portland neighborhood.

Jane was a devoted wife and mother who treasured her two sons; loving every moment with them. Jane’s most cherished role, however, was being Nana to her three grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.

Jane was a member of Crescent Hill Baptist Church for over 50 years. She was a dedicated volunteer at her church, served on numerous committees and sponsored a Burmese family. She also worked with Crescent Hill United Ministries, a local food pantry and volunteered in a local hospital. She simply loved serving others and couldn’t say no to anyone.

Jane was an avid golfer and a member of the Hole-In-One club. She loved playing bridge and bowling with her friends.

Jane worked as a typist and proofreader for court reporters until her retirement at the age of 79. She was very instrumental in the success of two pet stores that she and her husband owned and operated.

She is survived by her two sons and their wives; Mark and Susan Major, Michael and Leslie Hardin; grandchildren Lauren Schneble (Allen), Scott Major, and Thomas Hardin; three great-grandchildren; cousin Ed Huber (Teresa), and two second cousins.
