Don Hunt was my best friend for years. We tackled every repeater project together. Don and I and our wives took trips together. Don had been fighting cancer for the past year. Saturday night, April 10, 2004 around 8:30 P.M. he passed away. Don had been a major contributor to the operation of repeaters in middle Tn. We were recently putting a new repeater on 146.64 when he asked if he could have his callsign on the repeater and I thought it was a great idea. He was delighted every time I mentioned how busy the repeater had been. That's just how he was, always enjoying helping others. He will be greatly missed by me and the rest of his friends.
