MR. HUNNICUTT WAS A VERY IMPORTANT PART OF MY LIFE GROWING UP IN COLUMBUS, IT HURTS ME TO HEAR OF HIS PASSING. HE WAS A COACH, MENTOR, AND A FATHER FIGURE TO ME. THE WHOLE HUNNICUTT FAMILY WAS IMPORTANT TO MY GROWTH AS A YOUNG MAN, MISS BETTY, WAYNE, AND MARSHA. MR. HUNNICUTT YOUR TIME ON EARTH HAS PASSED, BUT REST IN PEACE KNOWING YOUR INFLUENCES LIVE ON. --------MIKE STOKES

!ary Sheehan RoserI remember Thomas in some classes we had together. We knew he had already served our country and was older. But he was always respected and seemed to always have a sweet smile. God bless the family.
