Bobby always fix my wreck car and was good at what he did.Bobby will truly be missed by all who knew him.Will Mae,Lisa and B.J i will keep you all in prayer.
To the entire Hunt family Ms. Mae, Lisa, and BJ. Our deepest condolences and prayers for comfort are with you all. My family and I did not even know or find out about Bobs passing until today. Dad just found out and told me and I'm pretty sure in dad's voice, I could tell he was crushed for not being able to be a the services. I myself was crushed that none of us could pay our respect for such a fine and soft spoken man as well as a dear friend. I literally can not type just one memory to share here about him, because Bob left behind so many fond memories with our family and the entire neighborhood on Cambridge Dr. and this entire community for his dedicated services. His support for law enforcement and all emergency services across the entire county. Bob was one of the finest men I knew in my entire life and everything he did, he did with a smile. Ms. Mae was his world and his rock that I know for certain he loved dearly. He loved his family but most importantly he loved Christ. There's absolutely no doubt in my heart mind and soul where Bob went and that was to be with the Good lord Christ our father. During these trying times and your aching hearts. I encourage you all to turn your good books to Philippians chapter 4:13. Here you will find the most perfect words we all need to read and hear. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me". I know you all know this, but it's a reminder that when your hearts are heavy and you all are saddened just simply turn to him and pray to him and ask him and he will give you the strength to move forward and heal one day at a time.
Again our deepest prayers and condolences are with you all.
