Dorothy ‘Dottie’ T. Hunnell

Dorothy “Dottie” Thomas Hunnell of Little River died on Sunday, July 26, 2020, unexpectedly after a brief illness. She was the daughter of the late William A. and Mildred G. Thomas. Dottie worked many years as an accountant and tax preparer.
Dottie was predeceased by her husband of 55 years, Dale L. Hunnell Jr., who died on Monday, July 6, 2020. She was a devoted wife, mother, sister and grandmother.
Dale and Dottie loved their family more than anything and would always be there for anyone in need. They spent their time together going to eat breakfast at one of several of their favorite spots and just walking around Barefoot Landing to pass the time. There was not much they did not do together, and now they are together in their eternal home. We will always have them in our hearts until we meet again.
Dottie is survived by her sons, Gary Hunnell (Laurie) and Terry Hunnell (Natalie); grandsons, Justin D. Hunnell, Jordan T. Hunnell and Brice Ropp; granddaughters, Alexandria, Anna and Hailey Hunnell and Makayla Ropp; great-grandsons, Kaden, Zachary and Killian; siblings, Sue Thomas Edwards, Anne Thomas Miller, Billie M. Thomas, William A. “Bo” Thomas Jr., Harry A. “Hank” Thomas and John G. Thomas; and several nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents and husband, she was predeceased by her nephew, David Edwards, and niece, Candis Thomas; and brothers in-law, Jim Edwards and Jim Miller.
A graveside memorial service will be held in honor of Dale and Dottie at North Myrtle Beach Memorial Gardens Saturday, Aug. 8, 2020, at 10 a.m.
