Help for the Hardy Family

If you've been around any kind of fandom convention over the past few decades, you've probably seen one of the Hardy crew, slinging some of the best tees around. Known for their witty slogans and fun pop culture references, Aardvark Tees has been a convention staple for years.

This morning, December 27th, Weatherly Hardy collapsed at home and was taken to the hospital where he passed away.

This loss is devastating to the fandom community as a whole, but even moreso to his family. Weatherly dedicated his life to building a family business and doing his best to provide. We are raising funds to help offset any expenses incurred over the next few weeks as the Hardy family handles final arrangements and ease financial burdens to give them the space needed to grieve this unexpected loss.

Approaching the Aardvark booth while Weatherly was working meant receiving the corniest of dad jokes, the most mischievous of grins, and the biggest hug you could ever want. Aardvark Tees is like family - let's rally around them in their time of need.
