Dale Overton Yates, age 60, passed away on Monday, April 17. He was a lifetime resident of Madison County. He is survived by his wife, Michelle Naomi Rooney Yates; one daughter, Christine Michelle Yates; one sister, Jackie Sircy; one niece Victoria Sircy, of Lee; one son, Dane Willis; one stepson, Jerrod Reader, of Valdosta; and several grandchildren, Lisa Haynes, Angel, Chance, Gavin, Michael, Frederick, Colton, and Aurora.
Dale was outgoing, outspoken, and full of love. He was an “old-timer”- one of the last few of those, but he has left this earth to move on. He had nothing but love for his family and friends; all who knew Dale loved him.
An Open House will be held Saturday and Sunday, April 22nd and 23rd, at the home of Dale and Naomi. The address is 5571 NW County Road 150 in Greenville.
