Dan leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife Laura (Jordan) Hunter, sons Frank, Sonny, Jeremy Hunter, and daughter Meggan Myers.

I met Dan & Laura at a campground at Gunnison, Co. 6-8 years ago. He was in his happy space. Always going fishing with his buddies and telling about it. Wonderful people to know. My memories and thoughts are with you Laura I'm so sorry I'll miss him.

Dan was a genuinely warm and caring being who was always looking out for others. His regular phone calls were always appreciated and enjoyed. His strong faith leaves us knowing he is at peace. We love you Dan and holding you in our hearts.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
