Dale Davee

July 16, 1918 — June 23, 2014

Dale Davee, 95, lifelong Morgan County resident, died June 23, 2014, in Methodist Hospital. Mr. Davee was born July 16, 1918, in Morgan County, to the late Roy and Sadie (Smith) Davee.

Dale was a farmer for years in Morgan County, having farmed in Mahalasville with his father Roy until 1936. In 1937, the family moved to the northern part of the county and began farming in Madison Township and to Mann Road in 1959. He served as a Morgan County Commissioner and as a County Councilman also. He and his wife Ruby were very faithful and devoted members of the Church at Mt. Gilead.

Dale was a very generous and giving man. He and Ruby were involved with Gleaners Food Bank and also fed many people out of their own pantry on Mann Road. Having a strong faith, he took joy in visiting those who could not make it to church to offer communion. Dale’s incredible spirit will live on through his loving family.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by brothers, Maurice, Johnnie, Lowell “Ted”, and Floyd.
