Mary Lou

Hunter

Mary Lou Hunter, 77, of Ft Worth, Texas, went home to Jesus after a short battle with cancer on June 14, 2024.

Mary Lou was born on March 23, 1947, in Crockett, Texas to Mattie and Floyd Hunter.  She graduated from Wichita Falls High School in 1965, and was, forever, an Old High Coyote.  She married Charles Calligan in October 1965.  Together they have two daughters, Kelli Farmer of Ft Worth and Liz Cashman of Houston.

Mary Lou had an entrepreneurial spirit, and she enjoyed using her creative talents in all her endeavors and small businesses, including a unique home furnishings store and floral shop.  She frequently found herself involved in big art projects and event decorating with her friends and family.

Mary Lou adored her family, and her favorite times always involved spending time with them.  Even in her later years she would not hesitate to hop on go carts, golf carts, zip lines or go tubing with her kids and grandkids.    Affectionately known by her loving grandkids as "Granny LuLu", she always set out to have fun with a beautiful smile on her face.

Mary Lou was preceded in death by her parents, Mattie Davis and Floyd Hunter, and her sister, Barbara Hunter Willyard.  She is survived by her two daughters, Kelli Farmer and her husband, Pete Frazier, and Liz Cashman and her husband, Sean Cashman; granddaughters, Mackenzi Cash and Dalton Cashman and grandson, Cooper Cashman; sister, Kim Hunter; niece, Shari Craddock; nephew, Billy Craddock; aunt and uncle, Judy and Dickie Hunter.

There will be a Celebration of Life held on Saturday, July 6, 2024, at 2:00pm, Lighthouse Fellowship Church, 7200 Robertson Rd., Ft Worth, TX 76135, with Pastor Frank Briggs.
