Michael Dunn Obituary
Our world is forever changed as our cherished Michael passed away under tragic and unexpected circumstances. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Michael's charisma, easy going nature, and tender heart were apparent at a very young age and is the precious legacy he leaves behind for all of those whose lives he touched. His ability to live in the moment, slow down and simplify, and truly experience the sweetness of time is evident everywhere. A ride in the old, red Dodge truck, a humble plaid shirt, a fly drifting down a current, a contagious chuckle, his classic golf swing, and bare feet in the summer are just a few of these. Michael had a giving heart and his deeds were manifestations of his love, and are permanent and eternal, which no unfortunate earthly act can take away. We know he has been reunited with his mother, Janice Evans Dunn, and we find peace in this joy.
Michael is survived by father Richard Quayle Dunn, step mother Venitta Rae Dunn, brother Randy Evans Dunn (Earlene), nephew Joshua Ross Dunn (Rebecca), nieces Angela Dunn Gardner (Scott), and Jessica Dunn Parker (Travis), and their children.
A memorial will be held for family and friends Saturday, March 3rd, 2012 at 10 a.m. at Russon Brother's Mortuary located at 295 North Main Street in Bountiful, Utah. Remembrances may be made in the form desired by friends. Thoughts and memories can be shared at www.russonmortuary.com.

Mike would do anything for you if you asked. We lived and played in the same Val Verde neighborhood. I am saddened by his passing and my deepest sympathy goes out to his family.

My deepest sympathy is with you at this time. Although I hadn't seen Mike for several years I was very saddened by his passing. Mike and I were very good friends back in high school. Mike was such a kind person and was always joking around and he had such a dry sense of humor. He was so layed back and would give you the shirt off his back. Some people leave an inpact on your life and are not forgotten. Mike was one of them.

Michael was a neighbor growing up and went to high school with him.
My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family at this time of tragedy and losing a son/brother way too soon.
RIP Michael
