It is with the heaviest of hearts, we announce the loss of Zander Devon Hunter. Our "Gingie Boy," "Z," our favorite Little Redhead, was tragically taken from us far too soon on April 6, 2025 in Evart, MI. Zander was born September 13, 2009 in Big Rapids, MI and was just 15 years old when God called him home.
Zander leaves behind a parade of broken hearts: his parents, Dana (Jack) Webb and Rusty Hunter; his bonus parents, Jack Webb and Faith Dack; brothers, Bentley, Joshua, and Jay; sisters, Makayla and Ziggy; grandparents, Janie Durban, Cheryl Hunter, John Sidock Sr., and Dave Walters; aunts, Brandie Hunter, Jessica (Isaac) Dalton and Caitlin Beers; uncles, Daniel Durban, Craig Walters and John Sidock Jr. and numerous, great aunts & uncles, cousins, extended family and friends, whose lives he touched. Zander is predeceased by so many who loved him.
Zander was a mama's boy through and through but also loved his dad just as much. He was a big family guy who did everything with family and was always with family. He loved lake days with family and spent a lot of time at the skate park with his brothers and friends. Playing video games with his dads and brothers was a big hobby of Zander's as well, with Fortnite being a favorite. No matter what, he never missed a night without giving everyone a goodnight hug and made sure to say "I love you." A very thoughtful, loveable, happy, always smiling, laughing, and joking human with an infectious smile. He was always being silly, but could be very serious too. He was so soft hearted, with a heart of pure gold.
Zander had the kindest soul and biggest heart so, if you needed help, he didn't hesitate to volunteer. He always had a very inquisitive mind especially in his younger years. He could talk your ear off and was always so full of questions that filled that smart brain of his before he could speak.
When Zander was 17 months old, he had his left kidney removed but continued with his big cheesy smiles. “He was such a tough cookie”, as his Grandma Shirl would always say. Zander wanted to do construction when he got older. He was handy, enjoyed building, putting things together, and was always so proud of his work. Zander made a lot of things for his Dad in shop class.
The legacy Zander leaves behind will forever remain in our hearts and minds. His big heart, kind soul, big cheesy smiles & silly faces set him apart. He will always be remembered by that bright orange hair, his freckles and dimples.
We will always aspire to love so hard the way you effortlessly did, Zander Devon. We love you with all our hearts and souls forever & always. We will always be so proud of you, we were truly blessed with the time we got with you. Until we meet again Sweet Gingie Boy. #Forever15
