How did Peter Hardy pass away?

It has been reported that Hardy drowned on a beach in Western Australia on the morning of March 16. The 66-year-old was discovered face down in the ocean as he was snorkelling off of Fremantle’s South Beach. His death was reported shortly after the bystanders attempted CPR.

Condolences pour in for Peter Hardy

Once word of Hardy’s departure spread amongst friends and family, condolences and tributes began pouring in. Michael Hardy, his brother, shared the sad news of his passing on Facebook, writing, “Peter Hardy, my brother, passed away unexpectedly this morning. It’s the only way I know of getting in touch with his extensive network of family and friends. Peace be with you, my dear little brother.”

Hardy’s buddy Andy Burns uploaded some photos of him along with the captions “Our brilliant and gorgeous friend Peter Hardy, who passed away on March 16 while snorkelling off South Beach in Perth, Australia, tragically drowned. He was 66 years old, but he looked like a Greek god; he was in excellent shape and clearly enjoyed returning to his home state of Washington after making London his permanent residence. We had been good friends since the mid-1980s, when we shared a flat in Neutral Bay, Sydney.”

What’s more, “He excelled as an actor, singer, guitarist, drummer, and saxophonist. He has a lifelong passion for acting and has frequently been seen in both stage and screen roles. He bought a canal boat in London and outfitted it with recording equipment so that he could send me guitar tracks for me to arrange.” For his final remarks, Burns said, “Our deepest sympathies go out to his beloved girlfriend Lysa and his entire family in this time of great sorrow. RIP, cherished companion Peter Hardy We are both heartbroken by this tragic loss, so rest in peace, Adele.”
