ROXOBEL, NC – Daisy J. Dunning, 81, of Roxobel, North Carolina, passed away peacefully at her Suffolk, VA residence on January 25, 2025 with her daughter by her side. She was her area’s favorite hairdresser for forty years, and was an extraordinary Mom, Mimi, and great Mimi.

If you knew Daisy, you’d know that she had the sweetest soul. She loved God, and her family and friends deeply. She was a dedicated and selfless wife, mother, Mimi, sister, and friend. She took great pride and joy in her heirs. Even in her later years, she attended ball games and recitals to cheer on her great grandchildren. A great loss to so many, but her presence and the impact she made on our lives will last forever.

She is survived by daughters, Donna McIntosh (Stuart) and DeeDee Lauver (Danny); granddaughters Niki Forrester (Bobby) and Louise Hilton (Steve); great grandchildren Cambria, Tripp, Daisie, Amy, and Emma; sister Linda Mizell (Larry); and faithful friend, Ginny Bagnell.

A memorial service will be held at Ebenezer United Methodist Church, 1589 Steeple Dr., Suffolk, VA 23433, on Saturday, February 8, 2025 at 2:00 p.m.
