He learned to be a mechanic at Horsecreek Tire and then became a Service Technician at Deines Irrigation. He was a member of the Lyman-Kiowa Volunteer Fire Department. He loved all the people he worked with and working outdoors. He enjoyed working with his hands, repairing and building things.
Hunter could light up a room with his smile and eyes. He was a jokester and prankster and loved to make everyone laugh. There was never a time where he didn’t put someone else before himself. Truly one of the kindest souls.
He was an excellent athlete, being a part of the 2017 State Champion, 4 x 100 relay team. He was an avid outdoorsman and loved his hunting and fishing trips with his dad, uncle Odie and his grandpa. His proudest moment was to have the largest whitetail deer of the family.
Hunter loved spending time with his family and friends. His commitment to them was like no other. In his short 21 years, Hunter made an impact on everyone he met.
