Betty June Hunt, 83, of Sanger passed away on Sunday, March 1, 2020 at the home she shared with Tommy and Christy. She was born on December 21, 1936, the youngest of three children to William and Gatha (Coggins) Hunt in Van, Texas.

Betty attended school in Van ISD and was a beautiful cheerleader who always had both boyfriends and girlfriends surrounding her. Those bonds made in high school created lifelong friendships. Her cheerleader voice carried on as she yelled for Mark and Kelly on the basketball court or baseball field. Music seemed to inspire her whether it was playing the piano, listening to The Voice on TV, or singing in the choir at Asbury United Methodist Church. Her favorite Sunday morning routine was watching Joel Osteen, Robert Morris, Charles Stanley and Andy Stanley.

Betty attended classes at TWU and worked for various local businesses including Dr. Charles McAdams, and she was the joint owner of a Denton furniture store for several years. She was employed at Boeing Aerospace and Electronics in Corinth beginning in 1988 as an Administrative Assistant in OD/Training before being promoted in 1990 to Administrative Associate in Human Resources until she retired.

Her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were the loves of her life. She adored seeing pictures of them or visiting with them in person. It was a blessing that she and her dog, Ginger, were able to live with Tommy and Christy for the past three years She leaves a legacy of love behind when God gave her wings after three days on Hospice Care. The family is grateful for the few weeks of help the staff of Mayberry Assisted Living provided and for the loving comfort of VNA Hospice.
