Caryl Sarofeen Hunt of Quincy, MA and Sebastian, FL, passed away on June 19, 2019 surrounded by her loving family. She was born in Boston, MA to the late Sarofeen P. Sarofeen and Marjorie M. Sarofeen.
She grew up in Randolph, MA, and later settled in Quincy, MA before finding a winter home in Sebastian, FL. She enjoyed sailing at Town River Yacht Club in Quincy where she was a member for many years. Early in life she was active with the Girls Scouts of America and was Boatswains Mate in the United States Coast Guard Auxiliary out of Pt. Allerton in Hull, MA. She retired from the United States Postal Service. Most recently Caryl served as President of the Sebastian Embroidery Guild.
Caryl was dearly loved by those fortunate enough to have known her. She was a devoted daughter, caring sister, loving mother, dedicated wife and best friend. Her passions in life, aside from doting on her grandchildren were sailing, sewing, finding a good bargain, and enjoying each day doing anything and everything with her loving husband. She enjoyed their time in summer, relaxing on their boat, reading a good book and watching the beautiful sunsets in Quincy. She looked forward to their winters spent in Sebastian feeling the breeze on the Inlet, racing their RC sailboats, and spending time quilting and sewing.
Caryl is survived by her loving husband and best friend of 35 years, Harvey J. Hunt. Beloved daughters Ruth Anne Grabowski (Tom) of Keyport, NJ and Rachel Delisle of Dudley, MA. Devoted stepchildren; Peter Hunt (Kirsten) of Austin, TX and Patti Ann Leahy (Robert) of Wrentham, MA. Cherished grandchildren; Bobby, Haley, Benjamin, Megan, Hannah, Peter, Justin, Emma, Olivia and Grace. Dear siblings; Marjorie Kourafas (Harry) of Canton and Randolph, MA, Peter Sarofeen (Dorothy) of Holbrook, MA, Stephen Sarofeen (Linda Resner) of Randolph, MA, Mark Sarofeen (Nancy) of Randolph, MA and Ruth MacEachern (Kevin) of Scituate, MA. She is also survived by a loving host of nieces and nephews who she held close to her heart.
She will be deeply missed by her family & friends from Town River Yacht Club and the lovely ladies of the Sebastian Quilters and Sebastian Embroidery clubs, as she left this world much too soon.
