Linda Louise Hunt

Linda Louise Hunt, 71, of Anderson, Indiana, passed away peacefully on May 18, 2026. She was born on October 20, 1954, in Lynn, Indiana, to Henry and Rebecca Munshaur.

Linda grew up in Anderson and graduated from Madison Heights High School in 1972. At just 13 years old, she met the love of her life, Larry Hunt, who was 15 at the time. The two became best friends, balancing each other perfectly—Larry was the steady and constant to Linda’s orneriness. They were married on June 3, 1972, and shared a lifelong partnership rooted in love, laughter, cuddles, hugs, and kisses.

A dedicated homemaker, Linda expressed her creativity in countless ways. She was crafter, gardener, writer, drawer, and seamstress. She was a proud member of a gardening club that cultivated spaces designed to attract wildlife, including the majestic red-tailed hawk. When Linda was not creating beauty, she was likely bowling or going for a drive. She taught bowling on Saturdays at Cooper’s Sports Bowl and was very proud of her team of high schoolers that made it to the state championship.

Linda was also a gifted writer and poet, with one of her poems being published—an achievement she cherished. She lived life with energy and enthusiasm, known for her feisty personality, dark sense of humor, and love for jokes. Warm, friendly, and approachable, Linda had a way of lighting up every room and turning even the simplest moments into memorable adventures.

She is survived by her beloved husband of 54 years, Larry Hunt; her daughters, Michelle (Steve) Jackson, Patricia (John) Wilhoit, and Karen Ratliff; her grandchildren, Chelsea Hunt, Linsey Hunt, and Tala Anderson; and her great-grandchildren, Isabella (Sophia) Hunt, Meredith Donahue, and Bruce Donahue. She is also survived by her sisters, Mary (Dan) Ogilvie, Karen (Mark) Mace, and Amber Bennett.

Linda was preceded in death by her parents, Henry and Viola Rebecca Munshaur.

Linda’s legacy is one of creativity, love, laughter, and a life lived fully. She will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

Services will take place Wednesday May 27, 2026, at the pavilion at Mounds State Park - 4306 Mounds Road Anderson IN 46012. Visitation will take place from 11 to 12PM immediately followed by a service.

Michael James Frazee

Michael Frazee, 74, of Anderson, passed away peacefully at home, leaving behind a lifetime of love, devotion, and treasured memories with those who knew him best.

Michael shared 51 beautiful years of marriage with his beloved wife, Linda Frazee. Together they built a family that remained the center of his world throughout his life. He is lovingly remembered by his children, Lesley Dickin and husband Clark Dickin, Matt Frazee and wife Sylest, and Travis Frazee and Christina White.

He was a deeply proud grandfather to Joey Best, Elliana Frazee, Jaycie Best, Myah Frazee, Cody Dickin, and Tyson McKinney, each of whom brought immense joy to his life. He also leaves behind his faithful companion, Birdie.

Michael grew up in Anderson, IN. He attended St. Mary’s school and worked at Westside Aquarium. He went on to work for Prairie Farms, and after many years of dedicated service, Michael retired. In his retirement, he found great happiness working in his garage, where his love for woodworking allowed him to create with patience and care. He treasured simple moments most — family cookouts, laughter shared around the table, and time spent with the people he loved.

Michael was preceded in death by his parents Kenneth and Marie Frazee, Tim Frazee, David Frazee, as well as extended family.

Michael will be remembered for his unwavering love for his family, his hardworking spirit, his gentle heart, and the steady presence he brought to the lives of others. The memories he created and the love he gave so freely will continue to live on in all who knew him.

The Frazee family would like to say a special thank you to Community Hospital Hospice. Specifically for the thoughts and prayers from Erin, Shannon, and everyone. As well as to Michaels’s friend Joe Norian. Michael looked forward to you stopping by each day.

In accordance with his wishes, Michael will be cremated and no services will be held.

James Eugene Walker

James Eugene Walker, 74, passed away on May 2, 2026. He was born on December 14, 1951, in Anderson, Indiana.

Jim lived in Alexandria, Indiana, and was a lifelong business owner. Over the years, he owned and operated several businesses, including trucking, leasing, towing, muffler, and auto repair companies. Hard work and business independence defined much of his life.

Jim had a passion for model trains and was a member of the Muncie & Western Model Railroad Club. He also loved car culture in all its forms—from restorations and swap meets to racing. One of his proudest moments racing was at the Bobtail 500 in Pocono, Pennsylvania in 1982, when he unexpectedly entered and won the Semi Drag Race event. He was there to deliver semi race trucks but left with much more- first place and a great story to tell. When he wasn’t in the garage or at a swap meet, Jim also enjoyed fishing, boating, or simply being around the water.

A natural storyteller, Jim loved sharing stories—whether you’d heard them before or not, he was going to tell you. He was outgoing, friendly, and full of jokes. Jim never met a stranger and had a way of making people feel welcome with his humor and warmth.

Jim loved animals of all kinds, but dogs held a special place in his heart. His dogs—Chi-Chi, Candy Cane, Baby, and Gypsy—brought him some of his most joyful times.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Brenda Walker; son, James Jason Walker and wife Allie; grandson, Leo Walker; mother, Donna Jean Hoppes; sisters, Tonia Hurt, Jeannetta Presley, Jeanice Grable, Judy Walker, and Jody Walker; stepmother, Joyce Hall; and many extended family members and friends.

He was preceded in death by his brother, Jack Walker; and grandmother, Etta Bell Walker.

A visitation will be held on Monday, May 11, from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., with a service to follow at 1:30 p.m. at Legacy Cremation & Funeral Services located at 504 W. 9th Street Anderson, IN. Attendees are invited to wear their favorite flannel or casual clothing in honor of Jim—flannels were always his favorite.
