Mr. Dunlap was born January 28, 1933 to the late Gary Samuel & Emma Marie Dunlap in Atlanta. He and his wife, Polly, were active members at Gainesville Seventh-Day Adventist Church.  He never made a fortune, or a noise in the world seeking after fame, but had a healthy brood of girls and boys, who loved the very ground of which he came.  They thought him just little short of God.  Oh you should have heard the way his children said his name (Pop) at his bedside, as he fell asleep at peace, in the arms of Jesus.

Mr. Dunlap is survived by his second wife, whom he loved dearly, Polly Dunlap; his children, who he loved so much, Cindy & John Barsa, Greg Dunlap, Barry & Shirley Dunlap, and Marie & Thomas Stewart; 12 grandchildren, Shane, Heather, Eric, Jason, Amber, Chase, Jacqueline, Erin, Josh, Joe, Dan, and Lilly; and 13 great-grandchildren.  He was preceded in death by his first wife of over 54 years, Janet Elise Wagoner Dunlap (Big Moma) and his oldest son, Stephen Dunlap.
