Rex I also just found out about your beautiful Andrea. My memories of her were from early childhood at Donna Park Elementary, Hurst Junior High and Bell High School. I lost contact with her after high school. She was the most naturally beautiful sweet spirited and super intelligent girl in school. I played several seasons of soccer with her and her best friend Cindy Paules, our team was the Superkicks. Cindy's mom was our coach and Andrea was a great forward side by side with Cindy we had many first place seasons. I was a midfielder and loved playing soccer with her. I am so sorry for you and your daughters loss. No words can express my sorrow for your family. She was an angel and she lives on in all our memories and hearts. She was a blessing to so many people that knew her. God Bless you and your daughter all of your days.

Rex, I am so sorry for your loss. Your daughter needs you now more than ever before. I worked with Andrea at CellStar. I will miss her greatly, as will many others. I do understand the pain that you are dealing with now. There is no set rule for grieving, no set time limit. You never "get over it", the best you can do is to live with the pain and be strong for Gabby. Over time this will become much easier. Your family will be there for you, and you have many people around you to help. Just keep putting one foot in front of the other, and the rest will follow. Gabby will have questions, or comments, just be honest and don't try to push her into "talking about it". She will talk to you about this in her own way on her own schedule. Hold Gabby close, and let her know that you love her and will be there for her. Seek out those close to you and talk to them, at first it will be difficult, but it will help. I pray that you and gabby will recover and grow strong together. Andrea will forever and always be a part of all our lives. May God bless you and your family and walk by you side guiding you through your pain.

Rex and Gabby, I am so heartbroken to hear about Andrea and her parents. Andrea was my college roommate and good friend who I loved dearly. I deeply regret having lost contact with her. She was such an angel with a smile and tender heart that could make your heart sing. I know that there are very few words right now that will bring you comfort. However, the same God who I know gave Andrea comfort, strength, encouragement, and wisdom stands waiting to give them also to you. "He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young." Isaiah 40:11. Although I continue to weep over the loss of my friend, I know that God towers above our circumstances and that "in all things God works for the good of those who love him." Romans 8:28. I pray that God will produce from this tragic loss something positive and glorifying to Him. I pray that you will be surrounded by special people during this difficult time and that each day will bring some comfort and peace. In Him, Holly Henson Fox

Just a note to say how very sad and shocked we were to hear the news of Andrea and her parents. Our office has the opportunity to see a great deal of people each day but I can truly say no one made more of an impact in our lives than the Dunn family. We remember our very first visits with you all and Gabby. We watched her progress and always loved the moments we could talk and laugh with you all. Our last glimpse of Andrea and Gabby were Nov.19 and everyone gathered around to remark how big Gabby had grown and she showed us her little girl clothes that were always so cute. Andrea was so proud of her and always had that special laugh and smile when we talked.And then we got news of the terrible accident and our hearts and prayers immediately began for the family. Thank you Rex and Andrea and Gabby for always being so kind and so much fun on your visits to us. Our prayer for you will be peace and hope in the days that follow. Gabby is very fortunate to have you for a father and I know God will walk every step with you in these hours and minutes and days that follow. We love you, Drs Lensing,Wien,Eppich,Khoury

Dear Rex, We only shared a few holidays with you and Andrea and Gabby at Bridgets but we just wanted you to know that we are heart broken for you in your terrible loss. Andrea always had a beautiful smile and was so friendly. Her eyes gleamed when she looked at your beautiful Gabby. I know she is your special angel in heaven now and will always be special to all of us who were lucky enough to get to know her. Please know that we are praying for you and Gabby, may God give you the strength to get through this.
