BRANDON HUNTER Obituary

Brandon Everett Hunter Was born on August 8th, 1982 to Dalton and Dawn Hunter. He was the pestering middle brother of Bobby and Bryant (Lindsay), and a fun-loving uncle to Colton Levi and soon to be Troy Everett. Brandon's large, beloved family and many, friends lost their beacon of energy and fun on March 31st, 2015. Brandon was raised in Sumner, Washington, where he graduated from Sumner High School. Brandon was an accomplished outdoorsman and an avid fisherman. His passions included hiking, swimming, skiing, crabbing, and shrimping with family and friends. When Brandon entered a room, the room came alive with fun and laughter. Brandon's love of the water led him to become a certified deep sea diver, and this career allowed him to travel across the states, but always loved coming home to his family and friends in the Northwest. Brandon chose to switch career paths, and started working for Frontier Drilling on a drilling rig in West Virginia. Brandon's generosity and enthusiasm for life led him to choose to be an organ donor. We know of at least three families given life and hope provided by Brandon. Brandon will continue to live on. Brandon's celebration of life will be held at the Kelley Farm, 20021 Sumner-Buckley Hwy. East in Bonney Lake, at 2pm, Saturday, April 4th. In lieu of flowers, donations in memory of Brandon may be made to Life Center Northwest, 3650 131st Avenue SE, Suite 200, Bellevue, Washington 98006.

Hi my sweet Brandon. I carry you in my heart and soul everyday.
I saw a fisherman trying to catch a fish here in Florida and knew you could have shown him how it's done.
We have a new nephew, Troy Everett. He is a gift from Heaven. I will tell him all about his Uncle Brandon. I have a long memory with many stories about you. He will know your bravery, your spirit of excitement and adventure, your love of family, and your competitiveness, especially with your brothers and your smile and mischievous sense of humor. Colton hugs and loves on his baby brother, Troy Everett, but managed to squeeze in a little body slam. Awe, sweet memories of you, Brybry and Bobby.
I miss you and love you always!

Dear Dalton and Dawn,
With a very sad and heavy heart I want you to know how sad I am to learn of Brandon's passing. The one thing I do know is Fuzz has the brightest candle lit for him, to lead him to heaven. We all know it would have to be the biggest and best, there was no other way for Fuzz. Just think of the joy they will have together and they will be our welcoming committee when our time comes.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers, stay strong.
Love, Robin (Fuzz's sister)

To the Hunter Family,

My deepest sympathies to you. Brandon was truly a genuine person. I remember going to school with him from 2nd grade until High School Graduation. He demonstrated amazing kindness, respect and had a positive attitude. I am happy to hear he will live on by giving a new life to those three families. He came from a good family and I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Our hearts go out to all of you! I still remember that little boy with the infectious smile, what comes to mind was coming home from the shop one day, and there was Brandon and Fuzz smiling and laughing, stuck on the house roof cause they had knocked down the ladder. Never did find out how long they had sat there... Sending prayers and strength, Jan and Gary Sanford
