Captain Robert Leland Hunsaker

Born July 6, 1918 in Mexico, Missouri. Preceded in death by wife, Sallie Joy Smith Hunsaker.

Survived by sister Lillian Sullivan, brother in law, John, daughter Susan Hill, son Mark Hunsaker, and grandson David Hill.

Passed May 18, 2009 in Dallas, Texas after a lengthy illness.

The family would like to thank caregivers Mary Smith and Vicki Wheeler, as well as Grace Hospice, for their compassion and kindness during the difficult time of illness.

Bob, as he preferred to be called, was an unique individual who was his own man. Following his service in the United States Army and graduation from the University of Texas in 1949, Bob and his family moved to Dallas where he pursued a career as a pharmacist. He loved amateur radio, computers, crossword puzzles, gardening, historical literature, and had a general love for life. His legacy lives on through the donation of his body to the Willed Body Program of the UT Southwestern Medical Center. A private family memorial service is pending. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the North Texas Food Bank.
