I would like to thank everyone for their sympathy in the passing of my Father, Elmer G. Hunt. For those who did not attend the funeral, it was truley a celabration of his life.Those attending were his 9 surviving siblings(out of 15) and their sposes, his four children and their families and many friends. The Eastern Star did a service at the Wake and the Masons at the gravesite. The Veterans Admin. supplied a Flag, Color Guard, Gun Salute and Taps Bugler. His church members from Stallsville Methodist were there to support the family.We are very blessed by God . Jean Hunt Sweat

My thoughts and prayers are with all you during this difficult time. It's been many years since I was able to see Uncle Elmer but I do know that he made the best hushpuppies in the South.
With all our love,
