May God bless him and keep him in His Eternal care. Sympathy to the Hunt family in their time of loss.

I don't grieve for him. I celebrate his life of great contribution and love for everything he touched.

I grieve for the family he leaves behind. They are the ones who need our support now.

A man of great character and foresight. A life well lived. May God hold him in his arms forever.

He now has achieved the ultimate victory.

Hunt is with Doak & Kyle

What Hunt did off the field has equaled what his heroes Doak & Kyle did on the field. The boys are together again and heaven is the better for it. May they enjoy their rewards and put in a good word for the rest of us too.

Also a huge loss for American professional soccer. How many MLS teams did he own? Half the league or something?

He'll be greatly missed by so many. Best to the family.

Since I am a Kansas City native and an SMU alum, I have double the reason to thank and miss him. I always loved it when he would show up to SMU games and sit in the crowd like any other fan.

Big loss to SMU and of course an even bigger loss to his family. Our prayers go out to them. That's two huge alums who died this year, Aaron Spelling and Lamar Hunt.
