My deepest sympathy to the family. Mrs. Huntsman was my Bible school teacher at the Wolf Lake Baptist Church and her love for the Lord was contagious.
Her memory will forever live in all those who knew her.
Find comfort in knowing she is with the Lord watching over you.

My deepest sympathy to the Huntsman family. Sandy and I were friends dating back to when our children grew up together. I am so sorry for your loss and am praying for the Lord to comfort you during this difficult time.
