Angela Roxie Hunter, of Jewell, passed away on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at Accura Healthcare of Ames, at the age of 57.

Angela was born on June 16, 1968, in Nevada, Iowa, to Robert Earl and Shirley Ann (Mayfield) Hardy. She graduated from Nevada High School in 1986 and, later that same year, on November 22, married the love of her life, Lowell David Hunter, at the Assembly of God Church in Nevada.

Angela worked as a housekeeping supervisor at the Baymont Inn in Ames and later in environmental services for Mary Greeley Hospital. She had a special love for animals, especially her beloved Sheepadoodle, Emma. Angela found joy in life’s simple pleasures—time spent with family, motorcycle rides, camping trips, good music, weekly road trips with Dana, and antiquing adventures with her sister-in-law, Cheryl. More than anything, she treasured being a grandma and being surrounded by the people she loved most.

Angela leaves behind her husband of nearly 40 years, Lowell of Jewell; her son, Rodney (Shawn) Hunter of Roland; her daughter, Samantha Scalf of Jewell; her cherished grandchildren, Rylie, Travis, Liam, and Mia; her brothers, Andy (Sue) Hardy of Nevada, Angela’s twin, and Rod (Lynette) Hardy of Florence, Arizona; and her sister, Gaylene Hardy-Wilson of Colo. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Robert and Shirley Hardy; her brother, Rob Hardy; her son-in-law, Austin Scalf; and her beloved dog, Emma.

A celebration of Angela’s life will be Sunday, June 14, 2026, from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. at Hickory Grove Park – Oriole Ridge Lodge, 67464 250th Street, Colo, IA 50056.
