Candy loved to read, especially crime and mystery stories. She also enjoyed cooking and baking. As a young girl, she even won awards for her baking skills.
She is survived by her husband of 20 years, Donald D. Hunt (Newburgh, IN); children Mark A. Banks (Brenda), Nederland, CO, Jeffery B. Banks, Palm Springs, CA; and Amy B. Wilsbacher (Troy), Evansville, IN; and the only grandchild, Allison Hope Wilsbacher (Cooper Fleck, fiancé). Alli was truly the light of her world.
