When I first moved to Liverpool across from the ballpark when I was 10, Audrey and ‘Bud’ Thorburne introduced me to Little League, and therefore by association to the Jollimores and Warringtons from up on the ‘Hill’. Dooney’s Dad Earle was my first Little League coach, and a great guy! Though Gary and Denny were more in my age bracket, one couldn’t forget Dooney – tough as nails on the outside, but a real character and a generous guy. I didn’t win many fights as a kid, but by the time I was a teenager, I had a tough loyal group of friends in the Jollimores (and Warringtons), and I was a better (and tougher) young man for it. They taught me about loyalty. Whenever I talk about growing up in Liverpool, my stories always come back to the guys from Old Port Mouton Road. To the family, especially Gary and Denny, and to Jody, my sincere condolences. All our lives are stories with a cast of many characters. I will carry some great memories of Dooney with me,

Dune came in to our lives 14 yrs ago. He showed love to my mother at a difficult time and helped in away some may not understand. Yes at times he was a tough nut, and was quick to speak but that was Dune. He was a hard worker and provided for anyone in need. From stories of when he was younger, he was a fighter who did what he wanted but provided and helped raise his younger siblings at a young age. My children was like his own grandchildren and I could see the love right away he had for them. My son who was very fond of his Gramps will surely miss him. Keegan will have great memories to hold on too, and has a nickname now that will too be with him forever”slugger”. May you rest in peace Dune.

Dear Nancy, We are so sorry for your loss. We did not realize until to night that you had lost your mate. My hearing loss gets me in a lot of trouble some times. Keep your good memories close at hand to help you heal from your loss. Also take your Bible and read John 5:28,29. This passage deals with the resurrection that is waiting for us all after we die. We send all our condolences to you and your family at this sad time. With love
Del & Mary.

Sincere condolences to all of Dune’s family, friends & loved ones. Only just found out he passed not long ago.
Thank you so much for calling me after I contacted you, Nancy. I certainly enjoyed talking to you, as always.
Not everyone up this way has/had heard about Dune. He had many friends, pals & pards in the Lockeport area.
To us, he was a great friend for 40 yrs.
Despite being ill himself, he & Nancy trekked down here to visit Ralph a number of times during Hon’s final months. Both men being cannabis rebels for most of their lives, they were fascinated by the cannabis oil’s abilities for healing. Dune could not get over how much of it Ralph was ingesting! There were many laughs & serious discussions about it but Dune felt he was too tired, sick & old to give it a go.
Dune’s friendship, with Ralph in particular, was solid brotherly love.
His phone calls were uplifting to both Hon & I in the final weeks before Ralph’s death.
I am glad he suffers no more but sure miss knowing he’s just a phone call away.
(((((hugs))))) for all 🙁
