Margie died December 10th after a long battle with cancer with loving family members by her side. Margie was born October 23, 1939 in Chicago, Illinois to James and Margaret Hunt. She was preceded in death by her parents James and Margaret and great nephew Colby Selter. She was a beloved sister, aunt, great aunt, educator and friend. Her passing leaves a void in numerous lives.
Margie spent her early years working in the Archdiocese of Chicago as a religious educator and Principal. Margie moved to Central Texas in 1994 and worked as Principal of St. Joseph’s Catholic School. For the last 15 years, Margie has served as the Pastoral Associate of St. Paul Chong Hasang Catholic Church of Harker Heights, Texas. Margie’s strong faith was the cornerstone of all her endeavours and her faith never wavered in all that she did. She had a keen sense of humor and a laugh that would fill up the room. Her kindness, generosity, selflessness and consideration for others were her true essence.
Margie is survived by her sister Barbara Burke and husband Dick of Killeen; her brother Jim Hunt and wife Nancy of Dunedin, Florida; nephews James Burke and family of Killeen; Jim Hunt and family of Detroit, Michigan; Dan Burke of Killeen; Kevin Burke and family of Atlanta, Georgia; Tom Hunt and family of Chicago, Illinois; Brian Hunt and family of Lexington, South Carolina and Patrick Burke and family of Dallas; nieces Kathleen Burke and family of Harker Heights; Maureen Montez and family of Killeen and Erin Burke and family of Portland, Oregon. Margie also had 24 great nieces and nephews who loved her ‘a bushel and peck’.
