Not sure what to say?

I never forgot you, Johnny.. I'm sure your family never will either.. a sweet kind human being...

He was a loving uncle that spent many a holiday with us when we were growing up. He was warm and friendly to all who knew him. -Alison Hunner-

I will kept Brad and his family in my prayers. A great mentor, boss, colleague, and friend. I learned much from this man and truly appreciated him taking a chance on a young designer out of school. Rest in peace!

Obituary

John's Obituary

John “Brad” Bradbury Hunner, 80, passed away peacefully Saturday, December 1st, 2018 following a three year battle with cancer.  Brad will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Sally; children, Peter (Jacqui) and Michael (Kristy); brother Mark (Sally) Hunner, sister Mary (Jim) Robinson; and the many family and friends that were part of his life. Brad is preceded by his parents John Clark Hunner and Margaret Bradbury Hunner.

Brad was raised in Duluth, MN and attended Shattuck Military Academy before studying architecture and design at the Rhode Island School of Design.

To say Brad was an active man is an understatement. He lead an adventurous life that included competitive sailing, summiting the Matterhorn, and skiing with his family and friends. However, he set out for the biggest adventure of his life on September 23, 1995 when he married the love of his life, Sally, and took on two sons who have grown to consider him the gold standard of not only fathers and husbands, but men.

Brad graciously volunteered his time to Habitat for Humanity and his church St. Martins by the Lake.  Those who had the pleasure of knowing and working alongside him learned his heart was big and his love for family and friends, unrivaled.

A celebration of his life will be held at St. Martin’s by-the-Lake Episcopal Church on Thursday, December 13th at 11:00am.

In lieu of flowers please make donations to St. Martin’s by the Lake or Park Nicollet Foundation.
