Rebecca Ann Hunt, 40, of Lawton, Oklahoma, passed away peacefully on Thursday, August 1, 2024, at her home after a courageous battle with Huntington's Disease. Born on May 31, 1984, in Colorado Springs, Colorado, to Louis Chmiel and Deborah (Howton) Williams, Rebecca moved with her family to Lawton when she was in the first grade. She graduated from Eisenhower High School in 2002 and married James Hunt on June 1 of that same year. In 2017, she proudly earned her bachelor's degree from Ashford University.

Rebecca was a loving daughter, wife, and mother, deeply devoted to her family. She shared a special bond with her children, always planning activities and outings, with trips to the Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge being a favorite. Her unwavering positivity and support were constant sources of strength for her loved ones. Rebecca was also deeply committed to her church, often volunteering in the nursery, and she had a special passion for singing, which brought joy to those around her.

Known for her infectious energy and vibrant personality, Rebecca was truly the life of the room. She loved being around people and had a knack for brightening the lives of those around her with her favorite sayings, "Whatever!" and "Oh Well." Her love for animals was evident in the joy she found in her pets, including a guinea pig and a Great Dane.

Rebecca's warmth, love, and spirit will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

Rebecca is survived by her husband of the home, James Hunt, two children, Isaac and Emma Hunt, her mother, Deborah Williams and stepfather David Williams, twin sister, Jennifer Santiago of Lawton, Oklahoma, brother, John Chmiel and significant other, Dawn Liston of Lawton, Oklahoma, two step sisters, Mandie Williams of Los Angeles, California, and Shannon Mangum and husband Johnny of Mustang, Oklahoma, three stepbrothers, Wes Williams of Oklahoma, Thomas Williams of Marlow, Oklahoma, and Randy Williams and wife Sadie of Wichita, KS and many other nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Rebecca is preceded in death by her father, maternal and paternal grandparents, step grandparents, and an uncle, Bobby Chmiel.
