RIP, Dr. Gunn. May God bless this family.
I was sad to hear the news today but know you are with God and that you are in great hands as good people deserve great things. I am now 56 and want to thank you so much for not only giving me a smile that I, to this day, am still proud of (even though I hated wearing the neck gear – ha!), as well as my 20 year old son’s. We both got our braces in 5th grade by the same amazing orthodontist (you of course) and I couldn’t be more proud and happy to say that. Rest peacefully Dr. Gunn and know that you are truly missed!!!!
