Jonathan David Hunt

Jonathan was born on August 13th, 1991, in Mesa, Arizona to James T. Hunt and Ruth A. Stephens. He graduated from East Knox High School, June 2008.

Jonathan had worked at Wal-Mart in Mount Vernon over the past ten years, and in the capacity as an Assistant Manager for the last 5 of those years.

Jonathan was an avid collector. Among the many things he collected, was his father's John Wayne and The Ohio State Buckeyes memorabilia, both of which were his most cherished displays. He was very proud of his father, who was his best friend. He exceeded in his own expectations of how to be a successful man, which he truly was. He enjoyed comics, Marvel, video games, and would perfect his display of such things he took interest in. Jonathan also loved to fish and to go boating with his family. For his birthday, one of the last excursions the family took together was on a beautiful lake spending the day fishing from a pontoon boat. Jonathan was a true family man. He loved family get togethers with his siblings, nieces, nephew, and soon to be Mother and Step Father-in-law.

In 2018, Jonathan met the love of his life, Meghan. He and Meghan were so very happy together and had many plans for the future which included raising their five beautiful sons, all of whom he loved so very much. Some of Jonathan's most cherished moments included Meghan, and "his boys", going on small adventures together, and making memories with one another.

What was most important to Jonathan was the abundance of love he expressed to his family and friends. He was protective, humble, caring, and had the greatest sense of humor, that would just truly put a smile on anyone's face.

Jonathan is survived by his loving fiance, Meghan Kobel of the home; his sons, Dominic (13); Cayden (8) and their mom, Brittany Davis, all of Mount Vernon ; infant son, Archer Jonathan; step-sons, Carter (11) and Forrest (5) all of the home; brother, Josh (Lesly) Hunt of Mesa, AZ.; sister, Jennifer Sisneros, and nieces Lily (12) and Raven (11) of Columbus, OH; twin sister, Stacey Hunt (29, but 5 minutes younger than Jon) of Mt. Vernon, with niece Ava Hughes (9) and nephew Skyler Kupiec (1), sister, Dixie (David) Duwsnup of Colorado Springs, CO and brother, Daniel Gordon of Colorado Springs, CO. ; future Mother in-law, Karen Shaw and step father in-law, J.R. Shaw of Coshocton, and so many friends defined as family.

Jonathan is preceded in death by his father, James T. Hunt and his grandparents, Gerald D. and Irene (Vernel) Hunt and Geneva Thornton.

Per Jonathan’s wishes, cremation will take place. A family service will be held at a later date. Given-Dawson-Paisley Funeral Home is serving the family.
