Our 18-year-old son David, died unexpectedly on Monday, November 19, 2018, after being involved in a motor vehicle accident. We are devastated beyond belief and still in shock. We have paid the funeral home for their services, however, we do not have enough to pay for the rest of the expenses. When we were in the process of making arrangements, we were informed that we could not put a headstone on David's grave without paying for everything in full. His brother is afraid once the grass grows in the summer he will never be able to find his little brother's resting place.
We are asking for help in making this incredibly hard situation a little easier. Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.
We would like to thank you in advance.

David A. Dunn, age 18, passed away on November 19, 2018. He was born on May 7, 2000, in Springfield, a son of John Dunn and Bernadine Lewis of Chicopee. He is survived by his brother Lee Dunn of Chicopee, his half-brother Kenneth Lewis of Woburn, Jesse Audette of Springfield, Robert Audette of Springfield, his paternal grandmother, Rita Dunn and his beloved 6 year old nephew, Karter Wells, that lived with David and idolized him and couldn’t wait to get big enough to help his Uncle David (who he considered his big brother). David also leaves several aunts, uncles, a niece, Keanna and nephews Karter and Benny. David started his own landscaping business at the age of 14 and worked hard his entire life. He had a heart of gold and was always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone. Although his life ended much too soon, he touched many. He had a memorable smile and an outgoing personality. He enjoyed fishing, riding ATVs and dirt bikes with his father and Lee. David had the ambition to obtain his pilot’s license, now he has received his wings and is flying high but without the plane. Calling hours will be held on Monday, November 26, 2018, from 6:00 – 8:00 PM at Grise Funeral Home, 280 Springfield Street, Chicopee. Funeral will be held on Tuesday, November 27, 2018, at 10:00 AM in the Grise Funeral Home followed by an in-house Prayer Service at 11:00 AM. Burial will follow in St. Patrick’s Cemetery, Chicopee. Memorial Contributions may be made in David’s name to Dakin Humane Society at 171 Union Street, Springfield, MA. For online condolences, please visit www.GriseFh.com.
