Grace Hunt
October 12,1946 - February 4, 2024
Grace Barnett Hunt, 77, went home to her Heavenly Father on Sunday February 4, 2024.
Born October 12, 1946 in Louisville to the late Arch and Mary Barnett, Grace was a graduate of Shawnee High School, class of ‘64. She went on to study at the University of Louisville School of Dentistry and practiced as a Dental Hygienist for 25 years before retiring and working as a Teaching Assistant at JCPS, from where she retired in 2008.
Grace was a current member of St. Matthews United Methodist church, and previous member of Epworth United Methodist Church. Grace had a big heart and loved her churches, reading, animals, music, and coffee. Most of all she adored her family and never missed an opportunity to tell you all about her kids and grandkids.
A devoted and loving wife, mother, and grandma, she is survived by her children Drew Hunt (Jennifer) and Nicole Hunt; her grandchildren Lucy and Wyatt Hunt, and Olivia Shannon; her beloved cousins and many friends.
The family wishes to thank the staff of Cherokee Park Nursing and Rehabilitation for their skilled and loving care during her final years.
Grace is preceded in death by her husband Phil Hunt. A Celebration of Life for both Grace and Phil will be held on Thursday February 15 at Hikes Point Christian Church, 2601 Hikes Lane in Louisville. Visitation 5:30-6:30 with memorial service to follow.
Memorial gifts may be made to the Methodist Home of Kentucky or Hosparus of Louisville.

Grace and Phil were such an integral part of my childhood. We spent so much time with them at church and other events. They were truly family of the heart and will be missed. Big hugs to Drew and Nicole and your families.
