Oct. 9, 1937 - Feb. 10, 2022

Adelaide H. Dunlop, a 1955 graduate of East Hampton High School, died on Feb. 10 in Venice, Fla., where she had been living since 2006. She was 84.

Ms. Dunlop had a career as a bookkeeper, retiring in 2005. She was a member of and greeter for Epiphany Cathedral Catholic Church in Venice, and was a member and past president of the Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Columbus.

She enjoyed watching sports and playing cards with her friends. Her family said she will be remembered as a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

She was born in Maplewood, N.J., on Oct. 9, 1937, to Nelson Hall and the former Josephine Darnulc.

Ms. Dunlop’s second husband, James Dunlop, died before her. A previous marriage, to William Coyle in 1956, ended in divorce.

A daughter, Therese Coyle Field, also died before her. She leaves two children, Christina Bertrand and John Coyle. She is also survived by her grandchildren, Scott Bertrand, Lee Bertrand, Tanner Bertrand, Addie Kelley, William Field, Brian Field, Henry Uihlein Jr., Kyle Coyle, and Drew Coyle. She leaves eight great-grandchildren.
