Todd Hunsucker

May 19, 1962 — August 5, 2024

Todd Douglas Hunsucker was born May 19, 1962 in Tom’s River, New Jersey to Charles Jess & Doris (Hirschbiegel) Hunsucker. He entered this world full of love, vitality and lots of things to do. Todd passed from this life on August 5, 2024 after a tragic stroke induced dump truck accident at the age of 62. Upon his peaceful passing at NW Regional Hospital, he was surrounded by family and friends who held his hands until he was safely in the arms of Jesus, his Lord and Savior.

To know Todd was to love him. And if you “knew him” you were constantly wondering what he was up to and planning next. He was overflowing with fearlessness, energy, business ideas, adventure and generosity for others. Todd deeply valued hard work and took great pride in his businesses and providing for his family and employees. Todd was a “hold nothing back” kind of man. He loved sincerely and deeply – an unbridled man of true wholesome affection. Whether he was waving at you from a truck or greeting you in person, you could feel his joy. His hugs and kisses were for all those he loved and he never hesitated to let people know what they meant to him. Even his dogs knew how much he loved them, every day. His smile will forever be remembered, for it beamed pure sunshine.

In New Jersey as a young child, Todd’s parents (Charles & Kathy) enrolled him in the Admiral Farragut Military School for Boys where he learned stern discipline, humility and the value of leadership. All of these attributes helped shape Todd into the man we all know and love today. He was grateful for the skills he acquired and the direction that military school gave him in life.

At age 12, Todd moved from New Jersey to Waldron, Arkansas, and started the sixth grade and met his best friends in life, Scott Thompson and Bruce Sikes. He loved the country life in Arkansas and enjoyed the hunting, fishing, animals and outdoors. As a teenager, he was most interested in making money by hauling hay and pulpwood, playing sports, driving vehicles and girls (having just arrived from an all boys school). Todd was very handsome, a gifted athlete, had impressive manners, and made the most of every experience during his time at Waldron Schools. He made lifelong friends with the Class of 1981, team mates, coaches and teachers.

As a young father, Todd loved and provided for his first family, having two beautiful children, Heather and Heath. They were his whole world. He worked as a master electrician during this time under his father, Charles. Together they wired hundreds of houses, commercial buildings and even the WAC Basketball Arena where his funeral services are being held.

In the 80's, Todd was an employee of Tyson Foods where he held several management positions from Field Tech to Dispatch to Hatchery Manager. He also owned and operated two poultry farms for OK Foods and 31 years later (to this day); he still prided himself on being one of the best and oldest chicken farmers still in operation. His post Tyson days lead him to a very successful partnership in business with his dearest friend David Byford installing generators at poultry farms. He worked hard as a young man in many capacities; but always made time for his family and their activities and a little men’s softball & golf.

The next chapter of Todd’s professional life brought Alliance Propane & Petro. Together, with his wife Angela, they owned and operated the company and made many new friends through employing local people, serving customers and attending LP Gas Board and Arkansas Oil Marketers Assoc. It was a time in Todd’s life where he truly loved what he was doing- he was most happy when he was helping others, blazing trails, meeting people and building businesses. In 2017, The Hunsucker's sold their Gas Company to Ronnie Graves, who became a dear friend and vacation partner.

Currently, Todd enjoyed operating his heavy equipment and started a personal initiative to clean up Waldron with his business partners in his latest company, High Voltage Holdings. Today, you can drive around Waldron and see properties that Todd has bulldozed and improved, in hopes to make our town a better and safer place to call home.

At age 42, Todd rekindled a sweet friendship with the love of his life, Angela English. They married on October 2, 2005 and together they built a life they loved. Todd gave Angela the greatest gift she could ever receive, their precious daughter Justi. The love they share is out loud and everlasting. No couple could ever love, respect, cherish and honor each other more. They shared in their faith in God, love for adventure and laughing out loud, and the joy of their little miracle, Justi.  Todd loved time with his family and indulged in holidays, parties and moments when he was surrounded by his people. He was known to love a good steak dinner and be quite a dancer. He could not stay in his seat when 70's music was playing. He lived life to the fullest and never held back. His legacy of honesty and goodness will be carried on and spoken of with love and honor for years to come.

Todd is survived by his devoted wife, Angela of the home. He leaves behind three children he treasured above all else: Heather, Heath and Justi Hunsucker and his “sweet grandbaby girl” Carson Hunsucker. He will be deeply missed by his adoring mother, Kathryn Chicoine (Glenn) and his mother-in-law, Arlene English (Woody, deceased) all of Waldron. Todd is also survived by his sister Dawn Rowley, of New Jersey and his brother-in-law, Wesley English (Amanda) of Greenwood, Arkansas. Left to cherish his memory are a wonderful host of extended family and friends, whom he so richly loved. We find great comfort in knowing Todd was saved as a teenager at Camp Siloam (Church Camp) and celebrated his salvation with baptism in the presence of family and friends. 

Todd was welcomed in heaven by many loved ones that have gone on before him. But there is no doubt that the first one in line to hug and kiss him was his beloved Dad, Charles Jess Hunsucker.

Todd, our loving husband, father, son, brother, papaw, uncle, cousin and friend will lay to rest at Sehorn Cemetery in Winfield next to the beautiful land, rivers and mountains he grew up in, as a boy.
