The couple resided in Wilmington, NC until Mr. Cunningham’s death in 2007, after which she remained in Wilmington with her devoted and loving caregiver, Catherine (Kay) Higgins.

Hutchings (Gail) of Diamondhead, MS, and her stepsons, Rick Cunningham of Bonita Springs, FL, and Kelley Cunningham of Mesa, AZ.
