Dale Wayne Smith

Dale Wayne Smith has gone to be with the Lord on November 8, 2024, in Crowley, Texas, at the age of 88.

Dale was born on August 3, 1936, in Saltillo, Texas, to Estelle Dendy and Travis Smith. He moved to Sulphur Bluff, Texas later on, where he married Patricia Ann Smith on April 25, 1955. When he was younger, he had various jobs ranging from being a ranch hand to working the cotton gin to working in a glove factory. However, he spent almost three decades working at Lennox Air Conditioning. He loved playing sports, especially basketball and softball. He liked sudoku puzzles, trivia, and he never tired of giving quizzes to his children and grandchildren.

Dale was greeted in Heaven by his wife of 69 years, Patricia Ann Smith.

Dale is survived by his daughters, Lisa Rogers, Gwen and Mike Sparkman; his son, Roger and Bebe Smith; his grandchildren, Brandon Sparkman, Nikki Self, Jacob and Autum Rogers, Braylen Sparkman, Katy Rogers and Bopper Edwards; his great-grandchildren, Leah, Clarissa, Jaymes, Aurora, and Tristan; his niece and nephews, Dusty Baker, Allen Miller, Doug Parker.

In lieu of flowers, the family has asked that donations be made to the Alzheimer's Association.
