Patty Dunbar

Patty Dunbar died March 12, 2013 at home with family around her in Boise .  She was born November 23, 1927 in Boise , Idaho to Robert Herschel Davidson and Elta Mae (Magner) Davidson.  Patty married her best friend Bill Dunbar in Boise on March 31, 1951.  They lived in Boise but enjoyed over 35 years of retirement together while traveling all 50 states, mostly in their motorhome and everywhere else their hearts desired.  Their love for each other had no boundaries. Patty was a member of P.E.O. Chapter A, Women’s Civic Club, Early Ford V8 Club and the Idaho Jazz Society.

Patty is survived by her devoted husband of almost 62 year, Bill Dunbar; daughters Dyan Graybeal (Doug), Linda Dunbar and Nanci Dunbar (Mark); grandchildren Ian Graybeal (Renae), April MacDonald, Andy Graybeal, Dustin Dunbar, Jacob Hyneman (Katie) and Chelsea Hyneman (Sanj); and seven great-grandchildren.  She was preceded in death by her parents, Herschel and Elta Davidson; her brother Robert and grandson Danny Graybeal.
