Mary Rose Hardin was born in Nelson County, Kentucky, on April 6, 1923. She was educated in the Nelson County School System, and later married her true love, the late Charles Hardin. Together they built a life founded on I Corinthians 13.
She was the owner and operator of Mary’s Food Shoppe. Mary Rose also worked many years as a line assembly operator at the Indiana Army Ammunition Plant. During her spare time, she was a jewelry consultant, and after a rewarding career, she retired as a home health care specialist.
Mary Rose professed her love for Jesus Christ early in her youth and was baptized at Samuels Baptist Church. In her later years, Mary Rose joined St. Stephen Baptist Church (Louisville, KY) and made Gospel Missionary Baptist Church (Louisville, KY) her second church home.
Bright and early on September 18, 2021, the Lord dispatched his Angels to carry Mary Rose to her Heavenly home.
