Don C Hunsaker
Born October 17, 1928 in Malad, Id, sixth of the seven children of Alma Loren Hunsaker and Amelia Camp Hunsaker. Don passed away peacefully at his home June 26, 2007 while recovering from treatment for amyloidosis.
Don graduated from Box Elder high school in 1947 and then served a full-time mission for the LDS church in the Central States Mission from 1947-49. Upon his return, Don married Donna Lucy Nelson August 3, 1951 in the Logan, Utah Temple.
Don received a bachelor's degree from Utah State University and a Master's degree from Brigham Young University. He worked over 35 years for the LDS Church Educational System as an administrator of Seminaries and Institutes in Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and the Mediterranean countries of Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.
Don enjoyed autumn afternoons watching BYU football and was a long-time Cougar Club member. He loved to organize and play in the annual Hunsaker Family Golf Tournament, and golfed often with his brother, sons and grandsons. His most treasured past-time, however, was being with his sweetheart, Beebe.
Don served faithfully in the LDS church in many capacities, including Bishop, Regional Representative, and President of the Arizona Holbrook Mission from 1978-1981.
Don is survived by his wife of 56 years, Donna "Beebe" Nelson Hunsaker, his sons Brad (Denton) of San Diego, and Scott (Jannalee) of Salt Lake City, his daughters Jeri (Kevan) Allbee of Orem, Michelle (Tim) Hampton of Glendale Arizona, Chris (Michael) Spiro of Mesa Arizona, his 18 grandchildren and 2 great-grandsons. Don is also survived by his sisters Norma, Ardith, and Ruth and his brother Robert. He is preceded in death by his parents, his brother Albert and his sister Grace.
