Born in Dover, DE on December 12, 1939, Mrs. Dunn was the daughter of the late Paul Leon Longfellow and Elizabeth Wheeler Longfellow. Her husband, William Earl Dunn died October 31, 2006.
Mrs. Dunn was a graduate of Greensboro High School and Goldie Beacom College. After graduation, her career led to a one year post in Puerto Rico for a newspaper, then 3 years at Maryland National Bank in Easton. In 1972, Becky started to work for the postal system and retired as Postmaster in Hillsboro. She and Bill loved to travel extensively, making many friends along the way. Becky was involved with Maryland Special Olympics, Children in Youth and even participated in the Polar Bear Plunge in Annapolis. However, no other organization was as dear to her as lifetime membership in Caroline Unit 29 and American Legion Auxiliary Department of Maryland.
