  1. Dear Jim,Cindy,Chuck and Kathy and family. My deepest and heartfelt sympathy goes out to everyone. Virginia was a wonderful woman that I respected and loved dearly. I will never forget her or your Dad,Chester,for all their kindness and generosity. I still have the handkerchief she gave me on Prom night. I count myself lucky to have been a part of the Gunion family during those important young years. I am sorry that I wasn’t able to come to her service, but you all are in my heart and prayers. Fondly, Coralee

  2. I am sorry to hear of your loss. I worked for Tom, her son at Tinker AFB for eight years. I really miss him. At least its a sense of peace knowing both of them are in a better place. May God bless
