Larry "Larry" Dunham

Lawrence (Larry) Anthony Dunham, born to Rita and Clifford Dunham in Cleveland, OH on March 6, 1938, passed away on Wednesday, January 21, 2015. He attended St. Edwards Catholic high school where he was a star varsity basketball player. He attended some college classes in Ohio before entering the workforce. He worked for the C&O Railway for many years while still being active in adult sports. During this time he married and started a family, and he also served in the National Guard. After leaving the C&O Railway Larry embarked on a journey of salesmanship that took him from Ohio to California and finally to Tucson, AZ. He sold many different products including satellite dishes, residential water softeners, cars and construction trenchers. Along the way Larry became an avid golfer. He remained interested in all sports, but the Arizona Wildcats were his passion. Larry ultimately became a financial investment advisor. After retiring in 2004, Larry stepped up his bridge game -- becoming a Diamond Life Master in the American Contract Bridge League. He was very interested in politics and world affairs.
