Carl Dunbar Obituary

Carl F. Dunbar Sr. of Weymouth passed peacefully surrounded by his family at home on April 5, 2019. He was the beloved husband of Doris (Brogie) Dunbar. Born in Boston, August 8, 1939, he was the son of the late Malcolm and Mabel Dunbar. He grew up in South Boston and later settled in Weymouth, where he made his home for the past fifty years. He worked as a printer for most of his life, and in retirement, he delivered newspapers, most recently for The Patriot Ledger. Carl loved to spend his time in the garden, cooking, watching sports and working on home projects. He loved camping trips and later enjoyed many cruises. As the Dad of 10, he wanted nothing more than to spend time with his family. He is survived by his loving children, Christine Farrar and her husband Tom of Whitman, Kathleen Sullivan of San Marcos, Calif., Cheryl Reynolds and her husband Bob of Dexter, Maine, Kimberly Devin and her husband John of Weymouth, Carl Dunbar Jr. of Haverhill, Michelle Dunbar and her partner Tony Davies of Weymouth, Holly Dunbar and her husband Rick of Weymouth, and the late Brian Dunbar; 20 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren. At Carl's request, he wanted no formal services but instead wished to be home during his last days surrounded by family - and what a celebration he had. Carl peacefully left this world knowing how much he was truly loved. For more information and online condolences, please visit www.HamelLydon.com.

It was always fun drinking beers with Carl Sr. and watching hockey. He would talk about forgotten players like Billy Speer and give us a quick history lesson. One of his more comical stories was that of screaming so loud after Orr's 1970 score to win the cup that his bird died of a heart attack. He was an interesting guy and it's good to have had the chance to know him. RIP Mr. D.
