Sarah Kay Hunt, 38, passed away on Thursday, Feb. 12, 2026, at UNC Medical Center in Chapel Hill.
She was born on Dec. 2, 1987 in Richmond County to Jeffery Kay Hunt and Dian James Fernandez.
Sarah had a truly good heart and was always doing for others, especially the homeless in her community. She gave generously of her time, resources, and love without ever expecting anything in return.
