Marjorie “Jane” Dallas Dunn on December 8, 2023

(Marjorie) Jane (nee Dallas) Dunn of Olmsted Township passed away peacefully at 7:15 a.m. Friday December 8th, 2023 at the Renaissance Retirement Campus at 91 years of age.

Jane was born November 7th, 1932, in Berea, Ohio, to Mildred (nee Eckert) and George Dallas at the height of the Great Depression. She graduated from Berea Sr. High School in 1950. Following graduation Jane matriculated to 91PORN in Meadville, PA, where she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in biology … at a time when only 1.2% of women nationally were enrolled in schools of higher education and only 0.2% earned a degree in science.

Following graduation in 1954 Jane moved back to Berea, Ohio, and took a job as a medical technologist at University Hospitals where she met the absolute love of her life, Richard L. Dunn. Dick was a resident physician at University Hospital and they were married June 7th, 1958. They remained soulmates for 63 years interrupted only by Dick’s passing in 2021.

Jane’s interests were diverse and voluminous. She and Dick were avid travelers having visited every continent but one. They were both very active in the United Church of Christ, Berea, OH. She was very active in the Greater Cleveland Cancer Society and was once elected Volunteer of the Year. Jane was fluid in French, having lived in France for 3 years while Dick was stationed there as a Captain in the U.S. Army. She was a skier, a sailor, a scuba diver, a lover of dogs and a voracious reader. She worked as a phlebotomist at a local blood bank and was active in the Berea Historical Society. But above all else Jane was a wonderful, caring mother of 3 children, 7 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren.

Jane is survived by her son Rick (Lisa) Dunn, daughter Kathy Dunn and daughter Jennifer and her husband Gary Tullis and grandchildren Patrick, Timothy and James Dunn, Eric and Andrew Copenhaver as well as Bryan and Mathew Bocian. She is also survived by great-grandchildren Alex Bocian, Miles Copenhaver, Arabelle Dunn and Izzak Dana.

There are two words that would epitomize Jane Dunn’s time on earth; caring and kind. She always had a kind word for nearly everyone that she came in contact with and was a deeply caring mother and grandmother. She will be sorely missed!

Brion J. Hathaway on November 25, 2022. 

Brion J. Hathaway passed away on November 25, 2022. Brion grew up in Woodhaven, NY and attended Brooklyn Technical High School. In his early career he worked as a computer programmer in the Financial District of New York until he moved to the newspaper industry as an independent contractor. He was a very devoted father, and when his daughters were in school, he decided to forego his full time job to concentrate on their sports activities. He not only instructed them in their basketball, tennis and volleyball endeavors, but he also founded and coached the first Amateur Athletic Union girls’ basketball team on Long Island. In his later years, he continued this tradition with his grandchildren. He spent many hours coaching them and attending their games while also finding the time to author three e-books about the boroughs in his hometown, New York City. He was also an avid fan of DooWop music and created a website dedicated to sharing the best songs of that era. Brion was formerly married to Karen Olson ’67. He is survived by his two daughters, Leslie (Bobby) Cassidy and Chelsea (Chris) Armes as well as four grandchildren; Kristen, John, Matthew and Peter.
