It is with deep sadness and heartfelt sympathy that we honor the life and legacy of Colin Fitzgibbons, the respected president of Hunt Realty Investments, who passed away at the age of 46. His sudden loss has left a profound void in the Dallas business community, among his colleagues, friends, and neighbors, and in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know him. Colin’s life was defined by integrity, dedication, and a generous spirit, and the impact of his contributions will be felt for years to come.

As president of Hunt Realty Investments, Colin exemplified visionary leadership. He not only guided the firm with skill and insight, but also invested deeply in the people around him. His professionalism was matched by compassion, and his ability to mentor, inspire, and uplift others set him apart as a leader who valued both results and relationships. Through his work, Colin strengthened the Dallas business community, fostering collaboration, innovation, and trust among peers and colleagues.

Beyond his professional accomplishments, Colin was cherished as a devoted husband, father, and mentor. Families across Dallas—including those at St. John’s Episcopal School, Jesuit, Ursuline, and Bishop Lynch—felt the positive influence of his generosity, guidance, and care. His dedication to youth sports, education, and community programs reflected his belief in opportunity, teamwork, and the power of support. One particularly meaningful contribution was his creation of an unofficial 8th-grade football team at St. John’s in 2023. Colin managed the program with remarkable dedication, hiring coaches, organizing practices, and ensuring young athletes had the chance to participate—despite facing personal health challenges. Those early Saturday mornings became cherished memories for dozens of families, and today, St. John’s has an official football program thanks to Colin’s vision and perseverance.

Colin Fitzgibbons’ legacy extends far beyond his professional achievements. He is remembered as a man whose kindness, devotion, and leadership touched countless lives, leaving a lasting imprint on both the business world and the East Dallas community. His energy, generosity, and unwavering commitment to others created a ripple effect that will continue to inspire all who knew him.

During this time of mourning, our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to Colin’s family, friends, colleagues, and the many community members whose lives he enriched. While Dallas grieves the loss of a remarkable man, we also celebrate the enduring legacy he leaves behind.

Colin Fitzgibbons will be remembered with admiration, gratitude, and love for all he gave to those around him.
