Together Again
Helen W. Dunbar, 96, has, on Saturday November 18th, 2017 gone to join her husband, Norman. They were married for 72 years.
She was a giving and helping person all her life. She doted on her grandchildren and was a loving influence in all their lives. She drove a school bus for Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy. Helen did not hesitate to lend a helping hand whenever and wherever needed. She delivered Meals on Wheels for a very long time. She attended Windham Bible Church for over 30 years. Helen was a lively and fun person who would laugh easily. For her 80th birthday she received a 10-speed bike from her husband and rode it proudly through the neighborhood. She loved flowers so much that there were plastic flowers in the yard during the winter.
Helen is survived by her children Judith Bray of Stow, Patricia Gagnon (Pete) of Garrettsville, Tim Dunbar (Judy) of Nelson, and Scott Dunbar (Ilse) of Maine. She leaves behind 15 grandchildren, 22 great grandchildren and 10 great great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Leonard and Faye Farris, her son, John (Pat), her brother, Luke Farris, and her infant sister Eileen.
Memorial Visitation will be on Friday December 1st from 10:00 AM – 12:00 at Mallory-Dehaven-Carlson Funeral Homes & Cremation Service 8382 Center St. Garrettsville, Ohio 44231. Funeral Service will follow at 12:00.
