Judy, Mrs. Dunn was such an inspiration to so many of us at Ellabell United Methodist Church. So often we still reference her as someone who truly walked the path of a Christian. We all loved and admired her. I will never forget when my daughter Jenna turned 7 and had a birthday party with her school mates. In the middle of the party, up drives Mr. Ed and Mrs. Ollie. Jenna had told them about her party and told them she would like for them to come and they did. In the midst of 20 plus kids they joined in the party. It made Jenna's day. We had no idea Jenna had asked them, but was so pleased that they went out of their way not to disappoint her. That was so typical of both of your parents. We appreciate the time that we were honored to share with your parents.
