Mrs. Hunt was born December 27, 1936. She was a daughter of the late Weldon D. Sellers and Olive Brock Sellers and step-daughter of Irene Sellers. She loved her church, the Bible and her family. At age seven she was deeply affected by a car wreck that claimed the life of her mother, maternal uncle and infant sister. She loved to trace family lineage in the Chesterfield Genealogical Chapter. She doted on her children and grandchildren and fastidiously kept house. She was a fiercely loyal wife, mother and friend who will be dearly missed.

She is survived by her husband of 63 years, Dewey William Hunt of Lexington; sons, Eddie Hunt (Karen) of Aiken, Richard Hunt of Lexington and Tony Hunt (Fran) of West Columbia; niece, Debbie Lemacks of Lexington; grandchildren, Jessica Ray, Andrew Hunt, Melanie Schumpert and Alicia Lawson, as well as four great-grandchildren, three brothers and three sisters. She is preceded in death by a sister and a brother.
