Hardy Krüger

Mr. Hardy Krüger (born May 12th, 1928 as "Franz Eberhard August Krüger") died slowly while traveling on January 19th, 2022 with his daughter nearby. While no conclusive cause of death was made publicly, his death was basically just due to old age. He was 93 years old when he passed.

Hardy is predeceased by by his parents, Rosie Krüger and Rodderick Krüger. He is survived by his beloved wife Anita Park​, his children, son Hardy Krüger Jr., daughters Christiane Krüger and Malaika Krüger as well as his pet gorilla, Max.

Professionally, Hardy was a Film Actor who was best known for being cast in more than 60 films over his career.

When he was not working as a Film Actor, Hardy was known for his love of birding and he would spend months most Fridays at it. Mr. Krüger (the deceased) also spent minutes visiting with his older sister most Saturdays when he was able to spare a small number of months. Ever since he was a boy in Wedding, many remember Hardy as a great storyteller with silly jokes that impressed everyone. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you make a small donation to the Heart Foundation in Hardy's honor.

A burial is scheduled for week the 10th at the burial place in Wedding. The service will commence at 2PM with a reception to follow hosted by his older sister at the undertaker's where refreshments will be served. All are welcome to the visitation to be held at burial place at 9AM.
