To Hunter’s family and friends,
Nineteen is far too young. There is a certain brightness, a beginning, a sense of everything still ahead and that is what makes this loss feel so deeply unfair. Hunter was just at the start of his journey, and yet, in his 19 years, he made an impact that will not fade.
He will be remembered in the laughter he shared, the friendships he built, and the moments big and small that meant everything to those who knew him. A life is not measured only in years, but in connection, and Hunter’s life was full of it.
In this time of grief, may you find comfort in each other and in the memories that continue to live on. Hold onto the stories, the smiles, and the love that remains. Those are the pieces of Hunter that stay with you, always.
Gone far too soon, but never forgotten.

oh hunter reed, where do i even start… I will forever cherish all the years we had together. You were my best friend and like my older brother. I will never forget all the sundrop you would bring me when i was having a bad day with a note saying “i love you sis” I can’t imagine living this life without you, but i will forever keep your name alive. You were the sweetest soul, one of the best humans i knew. Your smile alone light up any room you walked into. Your kind heart made my days feel much less lonely. I will forever miss you, i love you forever hunter reed ❤️

Forever glad I joined chior, even if it was half way thru my senior year, that opportunity alone lead me to meet hunter, and oh boy was he a trouble maker sometimes, I’ll never forget how sweet he was to me in school, or the first time he sang, he was so nervous cause he was messing around and didn’t expect Mrs. Naf to make him sing out loud for it, he couldn’t stop laughing in between singing it. Forever glad you let me be a tiny part of your life kid, give heaven some hell<3

My heart breaks for the whole family!!! I loved how he would find me in County Market and walk around the store with me just talking about school, Votech or just whatever. He was such an amazing young man and he felt like one of my own kids. I will miss him very deeply!!!

We didnt talk much until last summer, I remember our 1st time hanging out, I tried to stay up all night having deep convos and when I finally got tired you let me use your hoodie so I could sleep, I wish I could talk to you one last time, one more time so you could help me with my problems again. Love you Hunter

Hunter, you were definitely one of the biggest highlight of my life, i remember when we first met in the parking lot at Walmart on new years of 2025. You were definitely the light of the party and always had a smile on your face.it was never a dull moment with you. You were always so sweet and kind person. I send prayers for your family and friends. We all miss you Hunter!

Oh Hunter Reed, how I miss you so much already. I will forever cherish every moment I got to spend with you. Thank you for being the best “baby” cousin ever. Being able to have a cousin and best friend in one is rare and I’m lucky to have had that❤️
Love, Kyliegh
