To the Hunt Family you have my deepest sympathies for this untimely loss. We all have a number and if we knew it we would live like there was no tomorrow. If there is a good way to go this would have to be it cause Bryant would have been to busy to suffer. I am truly sorry I can't make the services because I just had a major back surgery and can barely walk. The Good Lord's must of had some heater problems and needed a good mechanic. It's always hard when you lose somebody you truly love and care about you just have to remember all the fun times y'all all shared with Bryant. Y'all will be in my prayers

Cathy and Roy and all of your families so sorry to hear of Bryant's passing. It was unexpected and is tough to have a son,a father and a friend leave before you, now he is with his grandparents and other family members that have gone too soon. I will always remember his contagious smile and sharp wit. He always made me laugh. May God bless you and comfort you through these sad times.

Mr. & Mrs. Chris White

December 26, 2013

I have not met nor ever will meet anyone with a more uplifting personality. Truly, a guy that was fun to be around and that enjoyed life. His honesty let him open up about past mistakes but his outlook on life would not allow those mistakes to dampen his spirit. He treated me like a brother and would often call me by the same. As we turn to our faith for answers, we only have to look at the life of Jesus Christ to see that he too was called home at an early age. The tears I shed are for his family and those closest to Bryant that will miss him so dearly. It was a pleasure to know him and I will have memories of him that I will always cherish.

Mr. Roy, Mrs. Cathy, Stacy, Brandon and Amy, our hearts go out to you during this difficult time. Bryant was the guy that we all looked up to when we were kids. I wanted to add a "T" to the end of my name so that I could be more like him. Although we lost touch in recent years, we would occasionally cross paths and it was as though no time had passed. He is and will always be one of my oldest and best friends. Find peace in the knowledge that you will see him again.

Mr, and Mrs, Hunt and family,

I was for fourtunate to play baseball and share a dorm room sweet at MDCC with Bryant., Although we lost touch since those days he was a very close and truly loyal friend. Bryant was determined to succeed as he worked extremely hard on the field with great competitive spirit, In the classroom Bryant was bright and always prepared to succeed, Bryant had a very positive impact on my life as his positive genuine nature helped me learn to be a better friend and person to others. Just a couple memories I would like to share that Always come to mind when I think of Bryant. 1. The first time I saw Bryant taking ground balls at shortstop he was struggling a bit as many of the freshman were as well. But unlike the others his body language and attitude suggested he had just caught every ball hit to him. He was not afraid. His determination was unmatched. I immediately thought to myself I like the way this guy competes. With that being said he was always respectful and humble even though he was a fierce competitor on the field. 2. Bryant started about 4 or 5 of us having a clothes swap about every 2 months or so. He always came up with creative ideas as there was not much to do in Moorhead. I had one of Bryant's s original shirts for years in my closet and would always think of him when I saw it. In all reality Bryant truly would give his teammates the shirt off his back. He really cared for others and there well being. He was truly a great friend I will always cherish the time I was able to be around him. Your entire family is in my thoughts and prayers.
