Jean took me under his wing for the beginning of my architectural career. He steered me, then removed my training wheels. He challenged me to grow and helped me develop my confidence in the professional world. I am grateful to have known Jean Dunbar.

All of us from FedEx Kinkos were so sorry to hear of Jean's passing. I have tried to call his home phone, to let the family know we have his personal project still at our store at 72nd and Dodge. Im sure the family will appreciate all his hard work from his history he was printing with us. Please feel free to pick it up for your memories...again, so sorry for your loss. We all miss him.

Sorry to hear of Jeans passing.

He was a supporter of my work and most enthusiastic when I would come over to his home to visit him. He had more projects going than just about anyone I know. My condolences to his family

I will forever be grateful to Jean for giving me my start in the architecture profession. I considered him much more than an employer and boss. He was a mentor and an advisor. I am deeply saddened to learn of his passing but feel blessed to have know him. I knew Jean to have faith and I trust he is at peace. My sincere sympathies to the Dunbar family. Clark
