I can't believe it has almost been a week since you left us Papa. You are so missed by so many...life will not ever be the same. I know you are in Heaven with a new pain free body and you are not suffering. It is going to take a long time to adjust because I feel like you are just a phone call away or a visit away, but then reality sets in. I want to thank everyone who visited him while he was in the hospitals. All the people who attended the visitation and funeral...thank you for coming. He loved his hometown of Liberty and its people. I felt so touched hearing the heartfelt memories you all shared. He was truly a good person with a lifetime of hard work, determination and loved his family, friends, neighbors...he never met a stranger. Such a kind and sweet man. Mama and Papa raised me right and gave me a good life full of wonderful memories. I just wish they both were still here. I love you and miss you both so much!!! Love Always, Tracie (Hunter) Hamilton

I was so sorry to hear of the loss of Mr. John. Benny and I thought so much of John and Lucille. I did not know about his passing until the day of his burial. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. May the Lord be your strength in the days ahead and precious memories flood your heart. Martha Seaborn
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

John Hunter showed kindness to all he encountered. His life was a light for his family, his church family, and the community. What child growing up in Liberty doesn't remember the T.E. Jones and Sons window display at Christmas time. His friendship blessed many. His remembrance also is of the blessings he shared, in the way of flowers transplanted in the yard, treats for the Wednesday prayer group, and many other kindnesses. Prayers for the family.

To the family of John Hunter plus Dorothy, Lewis, and Nancy: John was such a special person. He loved everyone at Golden Grove and was always concerned about the health of others more than himself. He made sure the children had plenty of candy and cookies to brighten their day. Oh, but, he did not forget the Wednesday night adult prayer meeting either. He always made those delicious desserts and we enjoyed them so much.. We will miss him deeply! We pray for you and ask God to give you comfort during this time. God Bless You! Bill and Gail Ross
