Biography

John A. Dunn, 51, of Sayville, New York, died on November 7, 2016. “Johnny Dunn” was a New York City firefighter for many years. He was a first responder during 9/11 who worked numerous hours at Ground Zero. Respected by many as a hard worker and a man with a stubborn mindset, he would work tirelessly to get a job done. He was avidly into hunting and fishing and shared many good times with relatives and friends on hunting and fishing excursions. With a heart of gold and witty humor, he could brighten any room. Even though his loss was devastating, we know he is no longer suffering and can finally sleep at peace. He was survived by his wife, Nikki; his mother, Dolores Mae: siblings, Jimmy Joe and Jackie; nephews, Christopher and Eric; nieces, Jamie and Courtney; siblings-in-law, Regina, Chris Monaco, and Joseph and Margie Doumas; parents-in-law, Phil and Denise Doumas; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends; and his beloved pets, Emily and Elliott.
