Dolores Gunn

Oct. 1, 1932 ~ Sept. 9, 2022

Dolores Marcene Gunn (“Teed” or “Dee”) passed away peacefully Sept. 9, 2022 in Surprise, AZ, just shy of what would have been her 90th birthday. Dolores was born in Burr Oak, KS Oct. 1, 1932, to Orville Scott and Marguerite Rouse Peters. Dolores graduated from Edgar in 1951, where she excelled as a cheerleader. Shortly after high school, she moved to Denver, CO. In Denver, Dolores reconnected with the love of her life, Billy Gunn, who was also from Edgar and the two were married April 6, 1952. Dolores eventually became a skilled bookkeeper while Billy began his career with the Union Pacific Railroad. The railroad allowed them numerous travels and they finally settled in Cheyenne, WY.

She was an avid golfer, enjoyed playing cards, antiques, making quilts and laughing at funny stories while visiting with her grandchildren. Dolores seemed to be most comfortable on the golf course, whether it be in Cheyenne, WY; Oakley, KS; or snowbirding in Arizona. She golfed in nine different states with her sister. Dolores was extremely proud of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, never hesitating to brag on them.

Dolores is survived by her daughters, Kelly Belden (Brad) and Kimberly Siler (Jimmy Dean); her sister, Sharon Hauschild; five grandchildren: Scott, Jill, Austin, Casey and Caitlin; four great-grandchildren: Clay, Logan, Emery, Ellie and numerous nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Billy; son, Scotty; two brothers, Lamar and Lyndall; two stepbrothers, Billy and Pete; and a step-sister, Mary.

Dolores will be laid to rest in Edgar next to her husband, Billy, and son, Scotty. A graveside service will be scheduled in October or November.
