Simon W. Hunt, age 60, of North Ridgeville, Ohio passed peacefully into his Lord's eternal embrace at his home. He was born in Sheffield, England and was the son of the late Peter Hunt and the late M. Shirley (nee Sizer) Kasay. Simon grew up first in Sheffield, England then in North Olmsted, where his family moved in 1974 following an opportunity through his dad's work. He was a 1983 graduate of North Olmsted High School, attended Miami University (Ohio), and completed his studies at Muskingum University. Simon enjoyed classic cars and attending car shows; he annually attended the Studebaker Car Meet in South Bend, Indiana with his best friend Tim Bramhall. He enjoyed coin collecting and reading, and repairing the classic clocks he accumulated. Simon also had an extensive Playboy magazine collection that he was very proud of, it was almost a complete set of every edition printed. He was a programmer who worked in computer repair until his health wouldn't let him go to the office any longer. It was then that Simon became the caretaker of his home; rising every morning to care for his cat Buddie, and tending to the daily needs and upkeep of the home he shared with his loving wife. Buddie was Simon's companion, and they did everything together. Buddie loved Simon so much he has now followed him to heaven. Simon is survived by his beloved wife of 30 years, Diane M. Hunt; sisters Frances Margaret Hunt and Jennifer Altstadt (Mark); and sisters-in-law Rosemary Carrere, Eileen Albrecht, Jean Coon (Lanny), and Carol Connett (Bill). He was the cherished uncle and great-uncle of John (Michelle), Ryan (Erica), Mark (Christina), Ashley, Amber, Evan, Jacob (Alexandria), Nathan (Mia), Alex, Anthony, Lucca, Lorenzo, Lucas, Gabriel, and Genevieve. In addition to his parents, Simon was preceded in death by his stepfather William F. Kasay and brother-in-law Gary Wilson.
