Western Fair District Wall of Fame member Norm Hardy of Lucan, Ont. passed away on Monday, May 16, just three weeks short of his 90th birthday.
The Hardy name has been synonymous with harness racing in the London, Ont. area and the legendary John Campbell, who grew up next to the Hardy clan, called Norm one of the pioneers of Ontario racing.
Son Ken and grandson Glen both remain active in Ontario racing. Norm, along with his brother Jack, was inducted to The Raceway’s prestigious Wall of Fame in 2000.
More details will be posted when available.
Please join Standardbred Canada and The Raceway in offering condolences to the family and friends of Norm Hardy.
