Jeremey Hunter

Jeremey Dustin Hunter was born in Wewoka, Oklahoma on May 10, 1982 and lived most of his life in Oklahoma and Texas. He passed away on September 30, 2026 in Meeker, Oklahoma at the young age of 44.

Jeremey was loved by so many and truly never met a stranger. He had a big heart, loved people, and was always willing to lend a hand. If you knew Jeremey, you knew he had your back. He was fiercely protective of his family and friends and would do anything he could to help someone in need.

Above all, Jeremey was a devoted father who loved his boys deeply and was incredibly proud of them. He worked hard for his children and gave 110 percent to everything he did. He lived life fearlessly and to the fullest—from riding bulls as a young boy and motorcycles later in life to competing as a professional MMA fighter. Yet some of his favorite moments were the simple ones spent with his family, especially Gage and Dustin—going fishing, hanging out and watching shark movies, or talking about Jesus.

In his short lifetime, Jeremey touched the lives of so many people. His love for others, his devotion to his family, and most importantly, his love for God will be his lasting legacy. He made sure Gage and Dustin knew Jesus, leaving them with a foundation of faith that will carry his memory forward for years to come.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Charles and Virginia Hunter and Jerry and Gail Ashley; brother, Adam Ashley; uncle, Ricky Ashley; and aunt, Cindy Smith.
