Valadia Marie ‘Dea’ Hunt Richard L. Layton Hermiston September 8, 1963 - July 1, 2017 Hermiston January 21, 1951 - July 2, 2017 Valadia “Dea” Marie Hunt, 53, of Hermiston passed away at her home on Saturday July 1, 2017. Dea was born September 8, 1963, in Denver, Colo- rado, to Dawn and Clay Price. As a young girl, she was adopted by Mary and Casey Denny and lived in Pilot Rock throughout her childhood where she graduated high school. She lived in Pendleton before moving to Hermiston, where she resided her remaining 25 years. She gave birth to, and loved dearly, three Hunt children: Valeen, Trenton and Alen. Dea married Greg Hunt on Sunday, October 13, 2002. They lived as husband and wife and best friends until her passing. Everyone knew her heart beat for her grand- children Nolan, Sophia, Gracy, Justice, Ember, Emma Lucas and Emmett. Dea loved to create. She often expressed herself through glass etching, jewel- ry-making, penmanship, and woodworking. Dea and Greg thrived in the outdoors together; often packing up at a moment’s notice and heading for an unknown destination to spend time together with nature under the stars. She had a whimsical spirit and loved anything black. She found comfort in things considered “weird,” was as serious about Halloween as most are Christmas and LOVED scaring people. She saw every horror movie produced and watched so much true crime, she had the mastermind to pull off anything. She adored all things miniature, missed the 1970s, loved rock and roll and couldn’t wait for the remake of Steven King’s “It.” She cherished all critters and was as gentle with a spider as most are with babies. She had tender- ness like no other. This was said for any person or thing that needed it, but especially true for those misunderstood, unappreciated, sad or lonely. Her heart was always wide open for anyone who wanted in and she felt everything as deeply as the cumulative depth of the souls she touched. Dea measured her life by the people she loved and loved her in return. Dea is loved and survived by her husband, Greg; daughters Valeen Madden and Becky Pettey; sons Trenton Storm and Alen Storm; sisters Linda Surber and Melanie Kay Gregory; brother Sean Price; and grandchildren Nolan and Sophia Madden, Gracy, Justice and Ember Storm, Emma Naylor and Lucas and Emmett Pettey.
