Obituary

Robert Lewis Dunn, a cherished husband, father, and grandfather, passed away on October 14, 2024, just days before his 83rd birthday. Born on October 22, 1941, in Ironton, Ohio, he was the eldest child of the late Robert W. Dunn and Wilma Helmintoller Dunn. Raceland, Kentucky, is where Robert spent his early years. He was raised by his Granny and Pa in Raceland until the age of 12, creating many fond memories and stories from his time in the small rural community.

Robert “Bob” Lewis Dunn, a veteran of the United States Army, served his country with honor and dedication. He was a devoted family man with a big heart and a passion for giving back to others. Bob pursued a bachelor’s degree in business at the University of Florida, proudly calling himself a Gator. He later excelled in Process Control Management, becoming the Vice President of Sales at CSI. Bob began his career in April 1966 and retired in December 2003. During his tenure, he contributed over $100 million in sales to Georgia’s GDP.

Throughout his life, Bob was deeply involved in his community, serving as an elder at Perimeter Church where he’s been a member since 1988 and participating in various charitable endeavors. His love for history, particularly World War II, fueled his passion for reading. An avid golfer in his younger days, Bob found joy in the simplicity of a well-played round and cherished time spent with his family.

Bob married his beloved wife, Sandra, who he met in 1981 at a church picnic in Jacksonville, Florida. Together, they built a life full of love and laughter, raising four children and welcoming two precious grandchildren into their lives.

Bob is survived by his loving wife, Sandra, and their three children: Andrea, Clint, and Michael (and his wife Stephanie). He also leaves behind two precious grandchildren, Donovan and Spencer.

As we gather to honor his memory, let us remember Bob as a man who touched the lives of many with his kindness, generosity, and unwavering love for his family. He will be deeply missed but forever cherished in our hearts.
