Mandy Kay (Wall) Hunt

There are no words to express the sadness we are feeling for you and your entire family. We are thinking of you all in this time of need. Our hearts are aching for you …

We are so sorry for your immense loss. We are lifting up prayers for comfort and strength during this time of pain and grief. Our thoughts and prayers are with all who knew and loved Mandy.

Mandy was such a bright light in the world. I watched her grown up attending Midway Elementary were I worked with her mom Trudi. Mandy was the most sweetest and caring little girl who grew to be that same woman. My heart breaks for your family.i know you will be watching over them. Much love and prayers to the family from all of the Childers family.

At the end of each work day I got to see Mandy’s smiling face as she picked up Odin up from daycare. We would chat and catch up on all sorts of things. I looked forward to it everyday. Mandy always made me smile and laugh even on my hardest days. She was always upbeat and bubbly. She was such a loving sweet person and would do anything for anybody. Mandy lit up a room no matter where she was. Words can’t describe how much I miss her and wish I could talk to her one more time. My heart breaks for her family and I wish I could take their pain away. My thoughts and prayers are with her family, friends, and anyone that knew that sweet girl. I love you Mandy and always will. Rest in peace sweet angel.

To the Wall and Hunt family, from the deepest part of my heart I send you so much love. Her light continues to shine in all who loved and knew her, but especially her sweet little boy. Her impact on our world will be forever felt by those who loved her and throughout our community.

I’ll miss you Mandy every day! I’ll always be here for you Odin, Trudi, and Bronson! “My heart throbs, my strength fails me;
And the light of my eyes, even that has gone from me.” Psalm 38:10
“Precious in the sight of the Lord
Is the death of His godly ones.” Psalm 116:15

There are no words to say. Mandy is such a beautiful person inside and out, such a shinning star. We send so much love, prayers, and thoughts with everyone. May her and Mattice walk together with Jesus. May they both rest in peace.

I have made so many friends in Michigan because of a conversation I had with Mandy when she was producing a St. Patrick’s Day Special in Doonbeg, Co. Clare, Ireland for Michael Patrick.
Mandy was always so happy and bubbly and had no qualms about publicly expressing her love for her family, her son, her husband, her job and her life.
My deepest condolences to everyone in Michigan grieving for Mandy and her unborn son.

My sweet Mandy, I will forever love and remember your goofy laugh. It always brought me so much joy. The gratitude that I will have for you letting me be apart of your village will never waver. I love you Mandy Kay. Forever.

Trudi and Dave, my heart is broken for you. Mandy was a breath of fresh air and so clearly loved you both so deeply, as well as Bronson. I’ve seen over the last few years what a beautiful mama Mandy became, and I know this loss is unfathomable. The extended Bashore family is keeping you all close in heart and prayer.-our hearts are with you. May you find strength in the love of family and friends. I am so very sorry for this immense loss.

Sending prayers to your family and friends. Condolences.

There are just no words to express the feelings of sadness and despair in losing such a precious young woman as Mandy. She was sweet and witty and always so full of energy. I loved it when she would stop by our office just to share herself and her precious Odin with us as she passed through.

Mandy’s immeasurable love for her family and her friends was always present. I’ll be praying that her loved ones will always find comfort in knowing how precious their Mandy truly was to everyone who knew her. Mandy’s kind of love knew no bounds. May God rest her soul.

I’ll be praying for you all. Matthew 5:4 “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.” .

The last few days I have been thinking of all the little things:

The dance we made up to Savage Garden’s “I Want You” when you spent the night.
The times we cut out NSYNC pictures and talked about who we would marry.
The time we watched “Halloween” together before trick or treating and Uncle Tom scared us by jumping from behind a tree.
And more and more and more.

I always looked forward to seeing you at Grandma and Papa’s growing up. Those holidays, Sundays and summer days wouldn’t have been the same without you.

My only comfort is that our Lord promises this pain is temporary. May you be in everlasting peace and joy now with Mattice.

I am in Denver and heard a talk show host talk about Mandy. I am a complete stranger but I am shedding tears at your loss. I am so sorry.

My heart goes out to Mandy’s family. I have had the pleasure of knowing her almost all of my life due to her mom and my uncle being friends. She will truly be missed by everyone she came into contact with. Big hugs and prayers to the Hunt/Wall family

O sweet Mandy..her family lived next to my grandparents and my grandma was our sitter while the parents were at work. I used to carry Bronson in a laundry basket like he was mine. And mandy has told that story numerous times. She had been wanting us to get together for me to meet Odin. Being friends on Facebook I was able to see him and her more, even though she wasn’t far. And I was touched that she told me Odin was going to be an older brother and that many didn’t know yet. I will miss commenting on her videos she posted.

Mandy babysat our two sons…and we knew how lucky we were to have her joy and brightness in their lives. My wife, Mary, also worked with Trudi in the Holt Public Schools for many years as a special education teacher. I am heartbroken for your loss. I vividly remember talking to Mandy about her college plans in journalism and her experience as one of the first classes in the beautiful Holt High School. I am thinking of all of you today.

I’ve been trying to find the right words for days now, but somehow everything falls short.

Mandy, I was so lucky to have you in so much of my life. Some of my earliest memories are playing in your backyard when your mom looked after me. I’m sure my mind has distorted it a bit in the last 30+ years, but I remember a huge yard where we played for hours on end. I also have a fairly strong recollection of you having a really awesome New Kids On The Block Casio watch. I must have been really jealous of that thing.

We ended up at different elementary schools, so I didn’t see you as much during those years, but you didn’t forget me. You invited me to one of your birthday parties when we were maybe 8? I didn’t know the other girls, and I was a shy kid, but you threw one hell of a sleepover, so none of that mattered. We watched Grease and played “light as a feather, stiff as a board”. I don’t know if it’s because 8-year-olds weigh nothing or because you simply made magic that night, but those girls were floating!

In addition to getting to have you as a friend, I also got to have you as a teammate (multiple times actually). On the dance team in 8th grade and as cheerleaders throughout high school. Cheerleading definitely got rough for a bit, but having you as a teammate really helped me through it—I hope that I did the same for you. And if I do say so myself, the routine that you, me, and Sherri choreographed our senior year was absolutely amazing. We should have been paid for that level of excellence.

You were also super creative outside of choreography, which I got to experience as one of the lucky students who got to see your work as a playwright performed at MSU. That was probably the most fun those actors ever had on stage. And who knew getting your wisdom teeth pulled could be so inspiring?

I think my favorite memories with you though, are from when we were students at MSU. We just met up and talked about life and how it was changing. I wouldn’t trade that time for anything.

I’m going to miss you so much, Mandy.
