Bring Tony Hunnicutt Sr. Home to rest

I am the son of Tony Hunnicutt Sr. ( TJ or Tony Jr) and on Thursday, 7/24/25, lost my father after a long-fought battle with heart attacks and kidney failure. I don’t like asking people for help (friends or family, let alone strangers) and to be honest, I don’t feel comfortable making a GoFundMe account due to not being able at the moment to pay people back, but I was recommended to try.

My father fell ill back in March after I started a new job and even though I was told I’d be taken care of, I wasn’t. I lost my job and haven’t been able to get a new one since then due to the lack of jobs in my area since Michelin shut down. I’ve been doing odd jobs here and there but not enough to have money saved and right now the jobs have been slow. My father was and will forever be a great man, who taught me right from wrong, so much so that I don’t even have a record or been to jail. He taught me my love for basketball, drawing, wrestling, nature, and cars as he was one of the best detailers in town. Most importantly, he taught me that no matter the circumstances, he always proved a point to stay in my life as I am to my 3 children of my own. We lost my mom 11 years ago and now, my father has gone to be with her and many of our loved ones in the heavens.

I pray that if you are reading this that you find God and get to know Him better, ask for forgiveness, and accept Him.

I know a lot of people and believe there are many great strangers in the world so I’m asking if you can make at least a $20 donation, my family and I would greatly appreciate it. He is being cremated and I just want to bring him home with momma so they can be together with me again.
