Naomi Ruth Hunter, 87, went home to be with her Savior October 11, 2010 after suffering injuries related to a fall. She was born June 6, 1923 to John and Cleo Fiscus Soliday in rural Dewey County, Oklahoma. She attended school in Bloomfield, Oklahoma for 9 years and graduated with the Class of 1941 at Camargo, Oklahoma. At the age of 13, while attending a dance, she met and fell in love with Loyd Hunter. They married January 28, 1942. Their union lasted over 64 years. They were blessed with their first child while living in Dewey County. The couple moved to the Panhandle area near Elkhart, Kansas where Loyd worked for a farmer. During this time more children were added to the family. They later moved to Goodwell, Kansas where they both worked for the college. While employed there, Loyd was offered a job working for John Deere so the family moved to Guymon, Oklahoma in 1963. Along with the move they added one more baby girl. After retirement the couple moved to the Fiscus family homestead at Vici, Oklahoma. Following the death of her husband, Naomi spent the remainder of her years with her kids and grandkids.
