Dennis Lloyd Gunn was born September 23, 1941 to Lloyd Ezra Gunn and Violet Onita Guyton Gunn in Atlanta, TX. He went to his Heavenly home on Monday September 27, 2021 at a Tyler, TX hospital, surrounded by his girls. He is survived by his “angel” and wife Carol June Gunn of Pittsburg, TX; three siblings, Bruce Gunn and wife Jennifer, Nancy Godley and husband Mark, and John Gunn; three children, his beloved daughter Amy Hill and husband Dan, and Chris and Bronson Gunn; three step-daughters, Kay Wiggins and husband Jim, Donna Jenkins and husband Johnny, Cindy Prince and husband Brad; three granddaughters, Jami Gann and husband Daniel, Kayla Stanley and husband Cory, and Kirbi Sheffield and husband Brett; as well as four grandsons, Jordan Tally and wife Shannon, Matthew Hill and wife Hannah, Josh Gunn and Robert Hill. He enjoyed 16 great grandchildren, with another Baby Hill on the way. He was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. He was a member of the Masonic Lodge, Odd Fellows, and Shriners. He served his community for 60+ years as a hearing aid specialist. He often performed hearing services free of charge, simply because he loved helping people. His favorite church calling was ward mission leader and he liked to do temple work with his wife June. He loved to sing and was the voice above all voices every Sunday. His “Howdy!” greeting will be sorely missed. He did extensive genealogy work with his brother Bruce and was proud to be able to trace his lineage back to a single Viking. He is and always will be a great treasure to his family and friends. His funeral will be in Mt Pleasant, TX at the Mormon Church, with visitation at 9 a.m. and service at 10 a.m., Friday, October 1, 2021.
