  	Hannelore Koerner Hardy, age 81, passed away peacefully in her home on February 14. 2012 with her husband by her side, after suffering from a long-term illness. She was born November 23, 1930 in Jugenheim, Germany to Fridolin and Lydia (Schmidt) Koerner. Hannelore or "Hanna," as she was called, grew up near Stuttgart, Germany. As a teenager she directly witnessed the destructive power of war, as well as personally experiencing the healing power of love. Near the end of the Second World War, when Hanna was only 15, she met the man who would become her first husband, William Lee Hall, an American serviceman. She emigrated from Germany to the United States in 1947 to marry him. The couple lived in Chicago for a time and then moved to Provo where they had five children together, though their first child, William Jr., died in infancy. The family later moved to Sandy City, Utah. In 1967, her husband William Hall died of cancer, leaving her with 4 children to support. During this challenging time she provided for her family by working as a waitress at the Junction Bowling Lanes and Mary's Coffee Shop. In 1970 Hanna married her second husband, Douglas Hardy-a marriage of closeness and loving companionship lasting over 41 years. They had one child together, Aaron Hardy. Hanna loved reading, cooking, knitting, road trips and spending time with friends and family. Her sweaters were commissioned works of art, which she sold to help support the family. By all accounts Hanna's cooking was heavenly, including such delights as her specialty, German Rindsrouladen. Although this hardworking woman was passionate about life, she could effortlessly fill up a room with love simply by quietly knitting and sharing her company. It is particularly fitting that she died on Valentine's Day as her life was focused on love, especially for her family.She was preceded in death by her first husband William Hall, their first child William Jr., and her parents. Left to cherish her memory are her loving, devoted husband Douglas K. Hardy; her children Reg Hall and his wife Debbie; Bryan Hall and his wife Tara; Tim Hall; Aaron Hardy; and Candy (Hall) Tingey and her husband Ken. She leaves behind 15 grandchildren, 33 great-grandchildren, an extended family and many dear friends. A viewing will be held on Sunday, February 19th from 6 to 8 pm at Berg Mortuary at 500 North State in Orem. Funeral services will be held on Monday, February 20 at 11 am at the Jordan Willows 5th Ward at 496 South River Way in Lehi, with a viewing one hour prior to services at 10 am, also at the church. Interment will follow at East Lawn Memorial Hills Cemetery in Provo. The family wishes to thank Dr. Sean Doyle with Tri City Medical Clinic, Dignity Home Health and Mountainland Association of Governments for their compassionate assistance in providing care during Hanna's illness. - The Salt Lake Tribune | 18 Feb 2012
