Patrick Ryan Hunt

Patrick Ryan Hunt, 37, of Monrovia, was courageous to battle addiction and when the system left him hopeless, he was found asleep and at peace with the Lord on Friday, December 13, 2024, in Indianapolis. He was born on April 21, 1987 in Indianapolis, to the the late James Robert Hunt and Jill (Blaker) Hancock, who survives. True to the red on his head, Pat packed a larger than life presence. His wits were kept on deck and ready to fire. He was fluent in bringing out humor and getting into mischief at any given moment. He grew up in the Monroe - Gregg School District and attended school with the classes 2005 and 2006. Extremely close with his sister, Morgan, Pat made an impression on so many people and developed many lifelong friendships throughout his journey. After proudly earning his GED, Pat became knowledgeable in plumbing, where he completed many side jobs and also worked in construction. One of his previous employers was McNeely. He was a natural athlete and sports fan, who’s favorite sports teams included the Kentucky Wildcats and the Indianapolis Colts. Patrick was above all a proud and supportive uncle to his niece and nephew and could often be found outside shooting hoops, casting a line in the water, and playing video games with his nephew, Solomon. He loved country music, classic rock and was a huge fan of Jelly Roll. In addition, he had a strong faith and was known to study his Bible; leaving notes of many verses that aligned with his soul. Pat was without a doubt a hard worker and a strong and loyal protector to all in his circle. Goofy at heart, his continuous shenanigans was always entertaining. His smile was infectious and with Pat in the room the chances of laughing were pretty much guaranteed. He expressed himself creatively and he did that with ink. With each tattoo came another and another until a masterpiece highlighted the story that was his and his to his own. Leaving a trail of tears and heartbreak for the ones that are forced to go on without him, his legacy will continue with each memory and moment that death cannot steal. Although his battles against addiction sometimes made him miss out, his love was never questioned and he faced the disease and fought as hard as he could. There is comfort in knowing that Pat has found peace and his struggles are over and with God he shall rest. His family wishes to sincerely acknowledge the outpouring of love and support that they have received during this tragic time. Patrick was preceded in death by his father, James Robert Hunt; stepfather, Charles Hancock, maternal grandmother, Kay Blaker; paternal grandparents, Bill and Bertha (Renner) Hunt.
