I was very sad to hear of the passing of Mr. Hunt. I cared for him for many of his visits to Lexington Medical Center. He was a very sweet man and I will miss seeing him. My thoughts and prayers are with all of his family.

Dear Carolyn and Melissa,
It is with my deepest sympathy that I send this message to you. We will miss Donald very much but we have the promised found in Rev. 21:3,4 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. I hope this brings comfort to you and your family.
Love,
Victor
