So sorry for your loss. Ivan and I worked together at the Navy Base for many years. I first met him while in uniform as my watch supervisor. I respected and admired him professionally, quickly becomng his friend as well. Even after he retired, I never forgot Ivan, and never will. He was a great boss, a super friend, and a good man.

This is a voice from the Bunton's past. Ivan and I were stationed together in Japan back in the 70's and my family and the Bunton family spent a lot of time together. (Don, Cecile, Renee, and Mark Taylor). After Ivan and I both retired from the Air Force, we went to Butler and stayed the weekend with the Buntons and had a wonderful reunion. Ivan was such a caring individual with a heart of gold. Sonya and Kelly were what he considered his greatest achievements. He truly loved "his girls". Whether it was just myself and Cecile spending time with Ivan and Laura or Renee and Mark spending time with Sonya and Kelly, it seemed like the Taylor's and the Bunton's were always doing something together in Japan. We have never forgotten them over the years. Our hearts go out to Sonya and Kelly during this troubled time. Your dad was a special man. We all loved him.
