Elizabeth June Pauley Dunlap

Elizabeth June Pauley Dunlap, 93 of Teays Valley reunited with her Heavenly Father on May 27, 2017. June was preceded in death by her husband of 40 years, Kyle "Squeak" Dunlap; her parents, James Andrew and Betty Thompson Pauley of Garrett's Bend; her sisters, Marguerite Adams, Betty Bird, Odessa Moore; her brothers, Harold, Clifford, Lyle and Ralph Pauley. June is survived by her son, Stephen Kyle Dunlap (Wendy) of Morgantown, daughter, Kylene Dunlap Brown of Teays Valley and grandchildren, Matt Dunlap of Breckinridge, Colorado, and Megan Dunlap of Raleigh, North Carolina; sister, Vivian Bird of Teays Valley; her beloved nephew, Kenny Bird of Garrett's Bend and her constant companion and grand dog, Gerty and several nieces and nephews. Born a farmer's daughter on June 27, 1923 in Garrett's Bend in Lincoln County, she went to work after graduation at C&P Telephone Company in Charleston, married our father after he returned from World War II and retired after 7 years to raise her family. Mom was half the team of "Squeak" & June, who opened their own business in Nitro in 1951. Dunlap Esso/Radiator was a staple in Nitro for 40+ years whereas Mom, as we later learned, was the "business" partner and Dad was the "personality". Having never experienced babysitters, our family was constantly on the move, showing horses, raising crops, participating in sports & election campaigns to name a few. Mom & Dad were always there, from Mountaineer Field to the State Fair, they tirelessly followed us through it all. Going to Mountaineer games was her passion and her grand kids made Morgantown even more special. Spending time with them and making those buttermilk biscuits with "Maw Maw" are memories they will cherish forever. Mom knew how to cook, and if you knew us chances are you sat at that table a time or two. God blessed Mom with her sister Vivian in that after the death of our father the "Dream Team" was able to spend nearly every day together, cooking, cleaning and shopping, as few sisters get to do in their later years. As it was meant to be, the "Dream Team" resided together at Putnam Center for the last 4 years. A special thank you to the Nurses/CNA's & support staff at Putnam Center for the love and care you showed our mom, your forever in our hearts. Thanks to the Doctors and ICU staff at CAMC - Teays Valley for your special touch. We so appreciate that our parents taught us how to do things most kids will never experience. But most of all how to treat people, and respect what God has given us. And for that we are blessed. Funeral service for Mrs. Dunlap will be 12 noon Thursday at Chapman Funeral Home, Hurricane with Rev. Dr. Melissa Pratt officiating. Burial will follow in Cunningham Memorial Park, St. Albans. The family will receive friends Wednesday from 7:00 pm until 9:00 pm at the funeral home. The family requests in lieu of flowers that donations be made to the Teays Valley Church of God Building Fund, P. O. Box 270 Scott Depot, WV 25560.
