"I was so sad to hear about Mr Hunter....seems like I have known him always....He was my biggest supporter when I was running for office- and after I retired he tried to get me to run for another office. I will miss his visits to the Abstract office and visiting with him. Ralph and Michael...you are in my prayers."
