Bonnie Sue Hunter

September 23, 1957 — April 2, 2016

Mrs. Bonnie Sue Smith Hunter, 58, of Buckeystown, MD entered eternal rest and set flight into the arms of God after a courageous fight against cancer, at home, surrounded by family. She was the wife of Alan (Butch) Hunter, whom she married at Buckeystown United Methodist Church on November 27, 1976. Born on September 23, 1957 in Frederick, MD, she was the daughter of the late Charles and Ethel Smith of Lime Kiln.

Bonnie was a 1975 graduate of Frederick High School and was employed at Fort Detrick for over 20 years. She was an outgoing, fun and independent free spirit and brave heroic fighter of cancer. Her family meant everything to her. Mrs. Hunter was an avid lover of sun, laughter, dancing and life. She was the life of the party. Bonnie enjoyed family cookouts, Friday night Lime Kiln visits and back porch sitting with her children and devoted husband and caretaker.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by daughter Denise Wiles, Son-In-Law Timmy Wiles of Wolfsville, Son Alan (Willie) Hunter, Daughter-In-Law Dani Hunter of Hedgesville and grandchildren Tyler Hunter, Mark Hunter and Dayna Hunter. She is also survived by her brother Charles (Dick) Smith, Jr and wife Tina of Adamstown, Sisters Florence Beachley and husband Gene of Brunswick, Beck DeGrange of Frederick, Jenny Boone and husband Wayne of Lime Kiln, Janet Linton and husband Butch of Frederick, Jerry Webb and husband Johnny of Knoxville along with many nieces, nephews, lifelong friends, neighbors, co-workers and extended family she made and collected along her journey.

Bonnie was preceded in death by her dear brothers, Bobby and Terry Smith, niece Barb Shankle, nephews Ronnie DeGrange and Sammy Divel and Brother-In-Law Paul DeGrange.

The family would like to thank Dr. Hudhud and staff as well as Hospice of Frederick County for taking great care of our “woman”.

The family will receive friends on Tuesday, April 5 from 2-4 and 6-8 PM at Keeney and Basford PA Funeral Home, 106 E. Church Street, Frederick. Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, April 6 at 10:00 AM in the Etchison Memorial Chapel of the Funeral Home. Interment will be in Mount Olivet Cemetery.
