Louis, affectionately known as “Papa,” was born on October 22, 1940 in Isola, Mississippi and lived most of his life in Ozark. He was the founder of Hardy’s Asphalt Paving. He was a huge family man and he loved all of this family but most importantly he put his beautiful wife “Sister” ahead of all and he loved and cherished her dearly. Louis was very proud of his sons and their success. He was a funny man, always full of jokes, who could put a smile on anybody’s face no matter who they were. His memories will be unforgettable and he will be dearly missed by those he touched and loved.

Pallbearers will be Wyatt, Keith, Princess, Savannah, Elvis, Trey and Alan.
