Kunzelmann, Jr.; her two daughters, Tracy (Dave) Ingalls and Pam (Shane) Brightwell; two beloved grandchildren, Paige and Kaden Reid; her brother Larry (Anna) Miller; and cherished extended family and friends. She was predeceased by her brothers Gary and Jerry “Dino.”

Her family would like to thank Dr. Joseph T. Barry and his staff for the exceptional care they provided.
