Thread: P.J. Dunnick

His name was Peter J. Dunnick. From Stuart, Florida where he was born and raised he always spent time on and had a strong love of things in or on the oceans of the world. It isn't common for a young man to need a passport to do his job, but he had work in Japan and other places. For a man 2 weeks past twenty one years old he had made a place for himself in several places around the world. He mostly did underwater diving. With Sharks, among other things. I was blessed to meet him only a few times, but from the time he was small he made an impression on me. He had a pleasant, respectful way about him, but what I remember most was his eyes. They had that spark that made you notice, telling you that he chased life with a passion without saying a word. Standing about 6'5" he was a presence. Young people tend to drift through relationships at this time of their life, PJ had been with his girlfriend for over 4 years. He was my Sister in laws nephew and always around when they came north for a holiday. PJ was taken home during a diving accident Monday evening at 8pm in the Bahama's, it is thought that an embolism related issue was responsible for taking this young man from the rest of us. Emergency workers tried for 45 minutes to get him back but he was gone, not to return. His sister Danielle and he were close, and his mom Sue and dad Pete are forcing themselves through this difficult time. I ask that you Pray for them all, their world is understandably upside down. He will be laid to rest Sunday near his home. This world has suffered a great loss in PJ being called home so soon. Thank You for taking the time to read this, and I'll get a few pics of him up as soon as I can get them.....Skeet.
