  • OBITUARY

• Gary M. Unell, age 75, of Atlanta, died September 30 after a courageous battle with metastatic prostate cancer.  Born and raised in Atlanta and a graduate of Grady High School and the University of Tennessee, Gary was an avid Vols and Atlanta professional sports team fan.  He was a skilled golfer who was able to “shoot his age” into his early 70s.  Gary’s professional endeavors included real estate investments and co-owning a successful home-building business for over 40 years.  Although he was loyal to his sports team and his work, his love and loyalty to his family and friends was unparalleled.  He was a devoted brother, husband, father, and grandfather who thoroughly enjoyed attending family member performances, sporting events, and celebrations. Gary will be lovingly remembered and deeply missed by his wife of 51 years, Renée who he adoringly called “Red”, his son and daughter-in-law, Brian and Hilary and their children Harris and Sara, his son and daughter-in-law, Robert and Lauren and their children Riley and Miller, his sister and brother-in-law, Arleen and Terry Golden, his sister-in-law and brother-in-law Elsie and Mark Schiff, his brother-in-law and sister-in-law Edward and Debbie Levin, his sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Lynda and Rick Strusiner, his uncle Bernard Unell, Renée’s Aunt Eleanor Zuber, and, several nieces, nephews, cousins and dear friends, many of whom were by his side since childhood.  The family would like to recognize his dedicated caregivers, especially Gabriel K.   In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Weinstein Hospice (https://www.jewishhomelife.org/ways-to-give/donate/) or the Jim Valvano “V” Foundation (https://v.org). Funeral services will be held on Sunday, October 2nd at 2:30pm at Arlington Memorial Park in Sandy Springs with Rabbi Laurence Rosenthal officiating.
