Larry Hunsaker Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Aug. 27, 2013.
On August 26, 2013 Larry Ross Hunsaker joined the angels in Heaven at the age of 70. Born on September 14, 1942 in Cassville, MO, Larry spent most of his adult life in Boca Raton, FL with the love of his life, Gemma, and their three boys Michael, Brian, and Andrew. Being a husband and father was the most important thing in his life and the love, loyalty and dedication he showed to his family is what he will be most remembered for. He truly was The World's Best Husband, Father, and Grandfather. While he was taken from us too soon, we celebrate his life and the legacy he leaves behind through his boys and his grandsons. Larry's favorite pastime was baseball and his enthusiasm and optimism for the Marlins was something to be admired. Larry is survived by his soul mate of 44 years, Gemma Hunsaker; his sons, Michael, Brian and his wife Monica, and Andrew; his two grandsons, Jack and Thomas; his brother, Jerry Hunsaker and his wife Charlotte; and many nephews and nieces. Larry is preceded in death by his father, Paul Hunsaker; his mother, Irene Hunsaker; and his sister, Peggy Harris (Hunsaker).

Gemma and sons,

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Larry. I only learned of his passing today, April 1, 2014 in a conversation with Cousin Carol Gonsalvez Mom and my Sister Mitzi Maddox Jasnicki. How very sad.
My late Dad Dick Maddox thought the world of his younger cousin Larry and his brother Jerry. I believe that Dad helped Larry get on with IBM way back in San Jose around 1965 or 66? I remember with fondness all of the wonderful family gatherings at my grandma Lela's house with Larry. Larry was always the life of party - in a good way of course. Larry was a wonderful guy, I am so sorry for your loss.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sincerly,
Richard & Kathy Maddox

My sincerest sympathy to the Hunsaker family. I met Larry in 1966 when we hired on to IBM San Jose at the same time and worked together. We were friends both at work and outside work until he and Gemma moved to Boca Raton. Unfortunately I only saw him twice after he moved. I will always remember him as an extraordinary guy. I know he was extremely happy with his family and life in Florida. Happiness with your soul mate and family is the best of life. He had it. Rest in peace Larry. We miss you.

"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am." --John 14:1-3

May God give you all a spirit of peace and of comfort for our grief is only for a season. May you hold on to the promise of God that in death, there is life! Thoughts and prayers are with you all from ROL in Rogersville, MO.
