Billie Sherer Hunt, age 78, of Franklin, TN passed from this life into the arms of her Savior on August 1, 2024 in Nashville, TN.

She was a loving wife and exceedingly proud mother of her daughters and grandmother to her grandchildren. She was well-known for her southern cooking, works of art, Bunco groups, and love of a Southern Baptist choir and old hymns of the faith. In her later years, she was a faithful supporter of Justice & Mercy International.

She is survived by her two daughters, Mary Katharine Hunt of Nashville, TN, Sarah “Sally” Elizabeth Cunningham (Walter) of Knoxville, TN, her grandchildren, Alexi Eidam of Knoxville, TN, Laine Eidam of Nashville, TN, her sister Peggy McSwain, and several loving nieces.
