Pastor Dunbar:
So sorry to learn of your loss of precious Vern. Your family has and will always have a very special place in my heart. I love you all and will remember the family (all of you) in my prayers - that God's comfort and grace will be sufficient. Bless you and thank you and Vern for touching my life.

I am so sorry for your loss. Bro. & Sis. Dunbar married us on August 6, 1965 in Colorado Springs. I loved to hear her play the organ. I was an organist and pianist as well. I loved to hear them sing together.
May God hold you in the palm of His hand and comfort you with His everlasting love.

Dear Pastor Dunbar, I have had you on my mind for several days. I felt impressed to check your web site and just learned of Vernice's home going. I know your loss is overwhelming. Vernice was a great lady and you and her children can take comfort knowing you will see her again. We will keep you in our prayers. As ever, Alton & Gwen Peters--San Jose, CA.

Sister Dunbar will be greatly missed. We are far from our home church, but the pain of the loss reaches our hearts. Dad always loved to watch her play the organ. He always said that she glowed with the Spirit. Our thoughts and prayers are with each of you! Til we meet again, God Bless.

God put amazing women in our lives each & everyday to share his love and promise. I have had the greatest privilege of knowing one of these amazing women, I'm grateful for the first encounter I had with her.
I was a scared eight year old girl who arrived on a yellow school bus one Sunday morning, invited by my friend dad/mom. Not knowing who Jesus was I walked in to this large church. I was so scared of going in alone. I recall attended the Sunday school class with my friend, afterwards I recall meetings Mama Dunbar, she greeted me with open arms, and a large hug that followed. She asked me how it was and will I see you again? I remember the ride home on that yellow school bus thinking to my self well that wasn't so bad, the man in class talked about the love Jesus, then this women said she loved me. I never understood love until that day. WOW! If she loves me then Jesus can't be that bad. She had invited me to come back the following Sunday, I cam back and I came with my siblings. Mama Dunbar introduced Jesus love to a scared eight year old girl that day and to this day I'm still following him. Thank you for the love you will be missed.
My prayers are with your family.
Love, Elizabeth

My Aunt Vernice was truly a wonderful woman after God's own heart; beautiful inside & out, and touched my life with such love and kindness. She was a shining example of a life lived for the Lord. I will miss her more than words can express, but I can rejoice, knowing that she has graduated to her final reward in Heaven, and I look forward to seeing her again.
