Alongside the photos, Hunter wrote: "The most gut wrenching words Ive ever had to write in my life, one that no one ever wants to. "My chest is heavy and I feel like Ill never breathe again, I dont know how this pain repairs or if it ever feels like life can live again. "My baby brother went to be with the Lord on May 1st." She continued: "The most kind, gentle, loving, beautiful, intelligent, funny human being this earth has ever known. "If you know me you know I rave about my brother, he is and will always be the love of my life. "I would text my brother every single night the words 'Goodnight I love you' because I never wanted a day to go by without him knowing how much I love and adore him." Hunter said that everyone loved her brother, writing: "Every one around him has always said nothing but beautiful things, his friends parents always said 'were so glad Tynan is in our childs life, hes such a good influence.'" After sharing that Tynan was "absolutely brilliant," she revealed that he passed away "just three weeks shy of graduating SFSU with a computer engineering degree." The emotional post concluded: "Thank you for making me a big sister. Thank you for your heart. "Goodnight my sweet beautiful Bubba, I love you."
