Pastor Marvin Franklin Hunt

He is also survived by son Tom Hunt and his wife Amy Perkins; daughter Kay H. Murphy and her husband Tim; grandson Timothy Murphy; step-son Matthew Crowe; and step-grandson Yates Crowe. He was preceded in death by his first wife and mother of his children, Traudl Heidi Hunt.

He was born April 20, 1941, in Xenia, Ohio to the late William Franklin Hunt and Alice Marie Burnett Hunt. He is survived by his sisters Beverly H. Saliba and her husband George; and Eleanor H. Bastin and her husband Lowell. He was preceded in death by his brothers Elwood Hunt and Richard Hunt.

He served our country in the Army for four years in Germany. He then earned degrees from Southern Adventist University and the University of South Carolina.

After 30 years as a Seventh-day Adventist Pastor, Marvin retired in 2003, but continued to serve in area churches. During his years in the ministry he served in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia.

Marvin was skilled in many areas. He was an accomplished author, skilled craftsman, certified electrician, mechanic, and repairman. He challenged himself with projects and was always ready to start a new one.

Some of his hobbies and interests included writing, backpacking (he hiked over 700 miles on the Appalachian Trail), motorcycles, clock repair and restoration, car restoration, bird watching, research, history, archaeology, foreign travel, woodworking, and more.

Marvin touched many lives – on the trail, in the neighborhood, within the family, and everywhere he went. He genuinely cared for all.
