He was born October 13, 1962 in New Berlin, NY, the son of Henry C. Dunagan and Coralee M. Pierce.
David lived life to the fullest - on his own terms - and was a fun-loving individual.
He enjoyed cooking and culinary television shows, loved animals, and enjoyed simply being in the outdoors. He cherished his family, who he loved to spend time with. You could usually count on him to put a smile on your face if you were having a bad day. He also had an incredible memory and could fire off with sharp, witty jokes. He will be remembered for his loving, jovial spirit.
He is survived by his son, David I. Dunagan Jr. (Danielle Ostrander); his daughter, Brittany Dunagan (Justin Pezzino); his step-sons, James Hill and Chris Hill; his grandchildren: Colton, Conner, Chantel, Xavier, and Ariel; his sisters Darleen Dunagan (John Tansey) and June Mapp; his brother, Ivan (Missie) Dunagan; his former wife Mary Thurlough; and his many nieces, nephews and cousins.
David was by predeceased his parents, Henry C. Dunagan and Coralee Pierce Squires Dunagan; his brothers: Larry (Gloria) Dunagan, Robert (Carol) Squires, and Gary (Louise) Squires; and his beloved canine companions, Cheyenne and Baby.
His family would like to thank the staff of Valley View Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation for their care of David over the last year and a half.
Burial will take place in North Norwich Cemetery at the convenience of the family.
Those wishing to make a memorial contribution in David’s memory may donate to an animal shelter or rescue of their choice.
