Port Lavaca Mentor passes. Connie Hunt has been a mentor to so many Republicans in Calhoun County and throughout Texas.

Connie entered her eternal home on February 28, 2025, in Copperas Cove, Texas.  Connie Jane Prince was born March 7, 1936, in Memphis, TN.  Connie is survived by her husband Ed Hunt, currently living in Copperas Cove, Texas.  Connie is preceded in death by her son Corbin Hunt. Connie will be greatly missed by a multitude of family and friends from all over the world.

Connie married Edward Hunt October 30,1954, and they lived all over the world while Ed was in the service; first serving in the Navy and then enlisting in the Army.  Connie worked in offices wherever Ed’s service took them.  Ed and Connie settled at Magnolia Beach in Calhoun County some 30 years ago.  Ed and Connie celebrated 67 years of marriage last fall.

Connie was very active with the Conservative Club and the Republican Party.   Connie was a proud supporter and contributor to the “We the People” program at Calhoun High School and was proud to create a field trip experience through the Republican Club that has allowed high school students from Calhoun to travel to the State Capitol in Austin to observe Congress in action and to experience the State Museum.

Connie was a good and faithful servant, and God has been so good all these years even as she faced heart concerns and illnesses. Throughout her life, Connie shared her talents and devotion within her church community, she was always ready to serve in any capacity.  Her energy and dedication were a blessing to those around her.  She sang regularly with a voice that was truly a gift from God.  She was seven days short of her 89th birthday. She truly had God with her always.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Galatians 5:22.
