George J. Dunbar, 79, of Spring Township, passed away Thursday, August 4, 2016, at 11:29 pm, surrounded by his loving family in his home. He was the husband of Lillian J. (Clemison) Dunbar, and they were married for 57 years. Born in Reading, Mr. Dunbar was the son of the late Joseph H. and Edith M. (Matz) Dunbar. He was a 1954 graduate of Reading High School and was employed by Willson Safety Products for 38 years, retiring from Cacoosing Industries.
