I fell in love with Gavin’s charm, so when I first met his dad, Guy, I soon realised exactly where he got it from. That witty, fun-loving personality, that cheekiness and that passion for life. It didn’t take me long to realise that this wasn’t just a trait Guy had. It was something that every Hunter male seemed to have absorbed and inherited! And today, I can see those very same traits in his grandsons, which fills me with so much pride. There’s just something about it. That quick wit, that cheekiness and that ability to make you laugh without even trying. But underneath all that charm and cheekiness, Guy was also an old soul. He was a man who was happy and content with the simple things in life. If he wasn’t boasting about the wad of cash he had in his pocket, he’d be boasting about how proud he was of his family. And, most of all, his grandchildren. I’ll never forget how, whenever his granddaughter Priya would get up to sing on the karaoke, he’d make sure everyone in the room knew exactly who she was “his granddaughter”. You could see just how incredibly proud he was of her. He didn’t need to say much else because that pride shone through him. And speaking of singing, that was another passion Guy and I shared. It all started one Christmas when Gavin bought me a karaoke machine. Guy and I would take it in turns, singing for hours. Honestly, it was the best Christmas ever! Then, the following Christmas, Rebecca bought Guy his very own karaoke machine, and he was absolutely mega chuffed with it. From then on, there was no stopping him! Music, singing and laughter became part of so many of our memories together, and those are memories I’ll treasure forever. I’ll always remember the days when me and Gavin were courting — and yes, “courting” was the word Guy always used! There were so many nights when Gavin would come and pick me up, we’d grab four cans of Tennents Super on the way round, and then sit around that dining room table in the parlour at his parents house. Guy would be telling us all his crazy, funny stories, and honestly, we could have listened to him for hours. He had a way of telling a story that made everything seem ten times funnier, and you never quite knew what was going to come out of his mouth next! On other occasions, he’d cook us a full-blown roast dinner while singing away in the kitchen, giving us his very own full blow entertainment show. Looking back now, those moments mean more to me than ever. At the time, they were just ordinary evenings spent together, laughing, eating, listening to stories and making memories without even realising it. But it’s funny how life works, isn’t it? Because those ordinary moments often turn out to be the extraordinary memories we hold closest to our hearts. And those are the moments I will cherish forever. Guy, you were such a huge character. You had a presence that filled a room, a sense of humour that brought people together, and a personality that certainly left its mark on everyone who knew you. You brought so much laughter, warmth and life into our family, and your absence will leave a massive hole in all of our hearts. But as much as we will miss you, I know that a man like you could never truly be gone. Because you’ve left something behind that is far greater than memories alone. You’ve left your legacy. The Hunter name will continue to live on through the generations that came before, those here, and all those still to come. As you would say your self, “keep the Hunters name alive”. Your cheekiness, your quick wit, your stories, your singing, your love of life and, above all, your love for your family will continue to shine through us all. So, Guy, thank you for the laughter, the memories, the singing and for making me feel so lucky to be part of the Hunter family. I will forever be proud to carry the Hunter name, and I feel incredibly lucky to have been able to call you my father-in-law. And I’ll always have a special place in my heart for the one and only person who ever called me… “Der-vin.”
