Daniel J. Dunbar, 76, of Castleton, succumbed to a hard fought battle with health issues Saturday Feb. 20, 2016. He was born September 25, 1939 to Daniel and JoAnna (Yates) Dunbar in Indianapolis.
Dan attended Howe High School and Purdue University; and then attended the Indianapolis Police Academy, in 1966, with one of his best friends, Mike Moore. Dan had protected the Northeast Side of Indy since the early 1960's. He was the Brendonwood Marshal; owned Northeast Security; and later became the Castleton Marshal until 1993 when the town disbanded. Dan is well known by students and faculty at Lawrence North High School, where he had coached diving and provided security since the school opened in 1976. He was a constant figure at athletic events standing beside his longtime friend, Barry Norman.
Dan was with his loving wife, Judy, who has been by his side for 55 years; and is also survived by his children, David, Donna (Wilson), Dennis and Doreen (Donarski/Loyal); grandchildren, Hollie, Missy, Carter, Bailey, Daniel, Dustin, Daniel and Derek; and six great-grandchildren.
