By now almost everyone has received the terrible news that Hunter Pardee went to be with the Lord following a tragic motorcycle accident last Sunday afternoon.  Hunter was the son of Mary Pardee and the grandson of Fr. Lon and Dru Pardee.  He has been a part of Church of the Messiah practically since his birth.  He was a member of our Youth Group, a dear friend, a brother, and so much more to so many of us.

There will be a viewing Monday night, October 29th, from 5:00 – 7:00 pm, at Eternity Funeral Home (click HERE for a map).  The following afternoon, Tuesday, October 30th, beginning at 3:30, there will be a funeral service at St. Luke’s Episcopal Church (click HERE for a map). There will be a reception in the Parish Hall of St. Luke’s immediately following the service.  If you would like to help provide food for the reception, please contact Lizz Looker.

Rest eternal grant to Hunter, O Lord:
And let light perpetual shine upon him.

May his soul, and the souls of the the faithful departed,
Through the mercy of God, rest in peace.  Amen.
