84 Lumber Founder Joe Hardy Seeks Divorce
UNIONTOWN (AP) ―
Joe Hardy, the millionaire founder of 84 Lumber, is filing for divorce less than four months after marrying his third wife.
The Herald-Standard newspaper of Uniontown was first to report that Hardy filed a divorce petition Monday in Fayette County, seeking to end his marriage to 23-year-old Kristin Georgi.
The petition does not address alimony or property claims, but says the couple have irreconcilable differences.
Hardy, a flamboyant philanthropist, celebrated his 84th birthday earlier this year with a party that include entertainers Christina Aguilera, Bette Midler and Robin Williams.
Hardy had five children with his first wife and high school sweetheart, Dorothy, whom he divorced in 1997.
He had two daughters with his second wife, Debra, an employee of the lumber company, before divorcing her.
Hardy and Georgi were married May 5th in Las Vegas.
