He was a past master of the Burlingame Masonic Lodge 400 and a member of the Burlingame Valley Scottish Rite.
He is survived by his wife of 70 years, Christine Hunter; daughter Kathleen Synder (Steve) of Indiana; son Richard Hunter (Dorothy) of Atherton; grandchildren: Jennifer Buchanan (Christopher), Tyson Urruita (Katelyn), Zachary Urrutia (Tatum) of Maxwell, California; Kyleanne Hunter (Shane DeMars) of Denver, Colorado and Leslie LaRue (Derrek) of Austin, Texas; and eight great-grandchildren.
