Crystal Thomas Hardy was born on December 21, 1981 to Gordon D. Thomas and Patricia Ann Haskell. She is the beloved baby of 5 children. Crystal came home from the hospital in a Christmas stocking and was momentarily placed on the family Christmas tree as the most precious ornament. She graduated from Provo High School in 2000 as a proud bulldog! She was a member of the Utah Valley Children's Choir for many years and participated in Choir Tours around the country sharing her love of the gospel, music and adventure. She met her sweet husband, David Hardy in 2001 and they were married in June of 2005. In the 11 years they had three beautiful children: Drexton (10) McKenzie (6) and little Tess (1). She loved the outdoors and all the adventures she had with her family in the mountains, spending time at their family cabin. She was a hard worker and enjoyed helping with the family business and serving those around her. She was a skilled singer; a funny bright adventurous daughter of God. Their children were and are her greatest joy. Crystal’s greatest love is her family. She has joined those who have gone before her and we know she is received with love and peace.
