As a long time friend to Mr. Gunning's son, John C. Gunning Jr., I can only send along my deepest, heartfelt sympathies to Mr. Gunning's wife Charlene, son John Jr., and the entire Gunning family...

We were all so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of our entire family are with you at this time of sorrow.
Bill, Bob and Mrs. Anna Hunter

I was very lucky to have worked for Jack at Dow & Condon many years ago. Jack was a caring and compassionate person who will be greatly missed by those of us who were blessed to have known him..

Dear John (The bear) Mrs. Gunning, Brian and Kathy, I wanted you to know that I was very sorry to hear about your dad and that I was sending lots of warm wishes your way in your time of sorrow. Tom Tyler

I have fond memories of Jack from my early days at Saint Francis. He served our hospital well at important times in its growth and development. As the new Chair of ADRC, I send to you our thoughts and prayers. Jack's long time service to the agency is remembered with fondness.

Dear Charleen and children, It was with sadness that I read of Jack's death but then I smiled with memories of our happy times on Pioneer Drive, both as neighbors and parents of children in school. Blessings for all of you! Rest in peace, Jack.

It was a pleasure to have known Jack. He gave of himself to many, asking for nothing in return. His example of living in the now, one day at a time, helped many of us.

Please accept our deepest sympathy. Bill will miss Jack but always treasure the memories. Our house is open to you at any time.
