Honoring Hunter Bagby: Help His Family

With heavy hearts, we share the unexpected passing of our beloved nephew, Hunter William Bagby. As family and friends come together to honor his life and military service, his loved ones are also facing many unexpected expenses that come with such a sudden loss.

This fund was created by Hunter’s aunts and uncles to help with those costs—travel, time away from work, and estate-related expenses. All contributions will go directly to his mother, Shauna Szarek, who is handling the estate and the many responsibilities that follow.

Hunter was the beloved son of Shauna Szarek and Dalton Bagby, the cherished stepson of Gary Szarek and Nancy Vanderlinde, and the treasured grandson of Rhinda Raymond. He was a loving brother to Hayden Bagby, Zoey Campbell, Kira Mattox, and Rhea Howarth, and leaves behind many extended family and many friends who will forever carry his memory.

Any support, whether through a gift, sharing a photo or story with family, or keeping the family in your prayers, means more than words can say. You can share the photos or personal stories on his mom's Facebook page or here on his obituary site

In Hunter’s memory, we also gently share this resource for veterans and their families: the Veterans Crisis Line is available 24/7 by dialing 988, then pressing 1, or by texting 838255.

Thank you for standing with us as we honor Hunter’s life.

With love,

Todd, Brenda and Jerry, Demetra and Peter, Lisa and Ray, Trisha and Andrew, Warren and Caroline.
