Thoughts and prays to the Dunn family. I knew Mr. Dunn from East Brunswick school system and later in life as a neighbor. He was a kind man with a heart of gold always sharing the fruits of his labor from his vegetable garden; it was always so nice seeing him walking his dog up and down the street daily and sharing a few words with him- never a complaint, ever. He will truly be missed.
