Hunter was truly one of a kind. No matter if you just met him, or if you have known him for years, he would always treat everyone with kindness, love and gave everyone the time of day. The absolute best RN out there. The world lost a great human, husband, father and son. Rest in peace Hunter. You will be missed bud.

It's not often you come across a person with the qualities of Hunter Smith. He was a lot of great things to a lot of people. For me, we started out as two people who loved to talk fishing at the Orvis shop, but it quickly turned into a relationship that was much more than just fishing buddies, he became my friend. Hunter had a fire to him that was much like my own. I don't think there is a body of water in Kentucky or Indiana that we haven't chatted about. I'm thankful I got to know him and will cherish the memories we had. My condolences go out to all his family and friends. He will be missed, but not forgotten.
