U.S., Social Security Death Index, 1935-2014

Guy Widman Tunnicliffe
Guy Widman Tunnicliffe, former chairman of the University of Missouri School of Journalism advertising department, died of a heart attack on Wednesday, Jan. 20, 1999. He was 67.
Mr. Tunnicliffe was regarded by his colleagues as being a teacher who made his students appreciate what they were learning.
Mr. Tunnicliffe was born in Detroit on May 20, 1931, to Max B. and Evelyn Widman Tunnicliffe, both of whom died earlier.
He attended Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. from 1949 to 1951. He left school for five years to serve in Korea as a member of the U.S. Marine Corps. Mr. Tunnicliffe then finished his degree in marketing at Michigan State University in 1956. He received a master in business administration degree from Case-Western Reserve University, graduating first in his class. He also completed 75 hours of doctoral work at Michigan State.
Before coming to MU, Mr. Tunnicliffe worked for Emory, Drake, and Kent State universities. He was hired at MU in 1983 as an associate professor and became the chair of the advertising department shortly after. He retired from the University in 1992.
Dean Mills, the journalism school dean, recalled Mr. Tunnicliffe's teaching style.
"He was very much a practical teacher who emphasized the business side of advertising in his classes," Mills said. "He was a very interesting and dynamic guy who had good contacts with ad agencies."
Don Ranly, head of the magazine sequence, said Mr. Tunnicliffe's students appreciated what he did for them.
"Advertising students loved him," Ranly said. "He really had a way of making those students feel special and making them really happy and proud of what they were doing."
Current advertising chairwoman Suzette Heiman said that one of his greatest professional accomplishments was winning first place in the National American Advertising Federation student competition.
"He loved advertising and devoted his life to practicing and teaching it," Heiman said.
Not all of Tunnicliffe's life was devoted to advertising and teaching. He owned Widman's, a popular Columbia bar which is now run by his son Barton, and Tiger Spirit, an MU apparel store in downtown Columbia.
"He took great pride in his family-he was the quintessential family man," said Amy Mills Tunnicliffe, his daughter-in-law. "His kindness, caring, and compassion will be missed. He led an exemplary life."
Services, conducted by the Rev. Fred Thayer, will be at 3 p.m. Saturday at Calvary Episcopal Church. Interment will be at Woodlawn Cemetery in Detroit.
Mr. Tunnicliffe is survived by his wife, Sally Tunnicliffe of Columbia; four sons, Guy Tunnicliffe Jr. of Hingham, Mass., Peter of Crystal Lake, Ill., Barton of Columbia, and Thomas of Nashville, Tenn; one sister, Ann Tunnicliffe Shallberg of Brookfield, Wis.; and four grandchildren.
