It is with profound sadness that the family of Dwight Alan Hunt II announces his passing on August 1, 2025, at the age of 33. A proud son, devoted husband, loyal friend, and respected serviceman, Dwight’s life was defined by a deep sense of duty, unwavering love, and an enduring commitment to those around him.

Though his time with us was far too short, the legacy he leaves behind will continue to inspire and uplift all who knew him. Dwight was born and raised in Somerset, Michigan—a place he held close to his heart throughout his life.

He was known for his strong work ethic, steady presence, and quiet sense of humor. Family and friends describe him as a man of integrity and strength, someone who could always be counted on in times of need. His presence brought a sense of comfort and stability to those fortunate enough to have known him.

A patriotic man through and through, Dwight answered the call to serve his country with honor. His military service was a source of great pride, and he carried the discipline, courage, and camaraderie of that experience into every aspect of his life.

Whether serving alongside fellow soldiers or supporting loved ones at home, Dwight was steadfast and selfless—a protector in every sense of the word. In his personal life, Dwight found deep joy in the love he shared with his wife, Jacquelynn.

Their bond was built on mutual respect, trust, and an enduring partnership that saw them through life’s triumphs and challenges. To those who witnessed their relationship, it was clear that Dwight cherished Jacquelynn deeply and was a constant source of support and love in her life.

Dwight also held a special place in his heart for his mother, Susan. Their relationship was one of warmth and mutual admiration. He often spoke of the values she instilled in him—compassion, resilience, and humility—and carried those lessons with him in all he did.

Though reserved by nature, Dwight had a powerful impact on those around him. Friends remember him as someone who would drop everything to lend a helping hand, who remembered the little things that mattered, and who never sought the spotlight but deserved it just the same.

Whether sharing stories over a campfire, lending advice during difficult times, or simply being present in moments that mattered, Dwight had a quiet way of making people feel safe and seen.

In the coming days, Dwight will be honored in a ceremony with full military honors—a fitting tribute for a man who gave so much in service to his country and community.

His funeral will offer a space for family, friends, and fellow servicemembers to come together in remembrance, to celebrate his life, and to mourn the tremendous loss of a remarkable individual. The ceremony will reflect the dignity, honor, and humility with which Dwight lived his life.

As the community of Somerset mourns, there is also a shared sense of gratitude—for the memories Dwight leaves behind, for the lessons he taught simply by living with integrity, and for the example he set as a son, husband, friend, and serviceman. His life may have ended too soon, but the echoes of his love and strength will continue to resonate in the hearts of those who knew him.

Dwight Alan Hunt II will be deeply missed, forever remembered, and always honored. May his soul rest in peace, and may those who loved him find comfort in the enduring impact of his presence.
