TIP OFF CLUB NEWS
3/20/05
It is with deep sadness that we share the sad news that Robin Hunt passed away yesterday after a long and courageous bout with cancer. Robin was the mother of Natalie, a freshman player on this year's Girls Varsity Team, and Brandon (formerly a member of the Walton Junior Raider and Freshmen teams).
We hope you'll remember Robin in your prayers, and be thinking about Brandon and Natalie during this sad and difficult time.
Many have inquired about how to help the Hunt children.
A Trust Fund has been set up for Natalie and Brandon Hunt.
Donations should be made payable to:
Johnson Ferry Baptist Church
The Hunt Children Trust Fund
955 Johnson Ferry Road
Marietta, GA 30068
