I just wanted to say that my Grandma Dunn was just amazing, and that I couldn't ask for a better grandma than Juanita Dunn. When they said Heaven gained an angel, they were absolutely right. Grandma, we will miss you always and no matter what happens, we will always love you. One day grandma, I will be able to be with you again. :')

Grandma Dunn, I was so blessed and fortunate to have you as my grandmother. Grandma I will miss you very much. You were such and big part of my life who helped me to be the strong Christian man that I am today. I just want to thank God for blessing me with such a wonderful grandmother.

You guys were so lucky to have her, she was such a caring and loving , (very quiet) person. She is now looking down on you all with no more pain and a smile on her face.
