Hunter Steven Krueger was born on February 4, 2011 to Amy and Josh Harmer, in Aberdeen.

Hunter was a very handsome, smart, loving boy. His smile was contagious. He enjoyed being outside playing with trucks, throwing the ball around, and playing with his dogs, Axel and Mya. Hunter had a love of animals especially the moo moos. He was a very fast little boy, full of love and energy that was often referred to as a cool little dude. He wanted to be a farmer when he grew up so he could drive tractors around all day. There was absolutely no food that Hunter would turn down especially birthday cake, which was his favorite. He loved Bubble Guppies and Paw Patrol, his favorite cartoons. Hunter and Ashton were inseparable; they had never spent a night apart. They were the best friends, as well as brothers. Hunter will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew him and loved him.
