I remember Beris very well and fondly. I remember where he sat in class and his work style. He was whip smart and so very kind. Sending all the love and prayers to his family and loved ones.

Dr. Kate Lawrence, Beris's prof at Campbell

I was sorry to hear of the passing of Beris. I met him this past spring in my accounting class. He was a kind and soft-spoken soul. May God bless his family with pleasant memories and the hope of heaven.

To the Dunlap family.. Scotty and Mrs Dunlap, mere words can not express the heartbreak I feel. I watched your children grow up, as my aunt Lora Esther babysat them in their early years. Beris was one of the brightest little boys I had ever known. At age 4, he was reciting the 10 Commandments verbatim, without a mistake. He was so well mannered, as his dad Scotty made sure of that. I pray that God will comfort you and grant you peace and understanding through this difficult time. Just know that there is an abundance of love for you and your entire family. God Bless you all. With love and friendship. The Ledbetters Sharon, Eddie, and James (aka: Lil'bay)

Sharon Ledbetter

Beris, we love you beyond measure. You were such an amazing young man, and I thank God — and your parents — for sharing you with us. I'm praying for strength for our community. There are so many people that loved you. Your spirit and light was, and still is, the brightest I have ever known. We can't bear to say goodbye, so instead we'll say, see you later.

We love you, always. ❤️

Praying for the family. May God give us all comfort, peace, and strength.

The Dunlaps - Bobby, Erica, Zoe, and Zya
