It is with profound sadness and a heavy heart that I share the devastating news of a tragedy that has struck our family. Our beloved mother, Donna Hunter, passed away tragically on 10/14/25 in a devastating house fire. Our father, Paul Hunter, was severely injured and is currently in critical condition at the JMS Burn Center in Augusta, Georgia.
The fire not only took our mother's life and their two little dogs, but also completely destroyed their home and all their possessions. Our father is fighting for his life and facing a long, arduous recovery and multiple surgeries, all while dealing with the grief of losing his wife and his home.
The Financial Need
Our family is reeling from the emotional shock and is now facing overwhelming financial hardship. We are reaching out to our community for urgent assistance to cover the immediate and ongoing costs of this tragedy. My mother was disabled and did not have any life insurance.
The donations raised will go directly to support three critical needs:
1. Funeral and Memorial Expenses: To give our mom, Donna Hunter, the respectful memorial and funeral she deserves.
2. Medical Bills and Recovery: To cover the extensive medical costs for our dad, Paul Hunter, including his care at the burn center, future surgeries, and physical rehabilitation.
3. Basic Necessities: To help our dad begin to rebuild his life once he is released from the hospital, as he has lost everything.
How You Can Help:
We understand not everyone can donate, but there are still incredibly powerful ways you can support our family:
• Donate Here: If you are able, any amount will make a significant difference in alleviating the crushing financial stress.
• Share This Post: Please share this post with your network. Spreading the word widely is just as valuable as a donation.
• Send Well Wishes: Keep my father and our entire family in your thoughts and prayers as we navigate this impossible time. He will require multiple life saving surgeries over a month if he is able to pull through.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for any support you can provide. Your kindness and generosity mean the world to us as we focus on supporting our dad's recovery and honoring my mom's memory.
With gratitude,
Ashley, Adam & Tiffany Hunter
