Reverend Dale Richard Webb, age 68, passed away Tuesday, December 31, 2019 at the Joan & Howard Woltz Hospice Home, Dobson, North Carolina.  Born in Mount Airy, North Carolina on March 16, 1951, Dale was the son of the late Richard Paul Webb and Pauline Utt Webb of Fancy Gap, Virginia.

Dale was a 1969 graduate of Hillsville High School. In continuing his education, in 1978 he received a Master of Librarianship from Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia.

In 1975, as a licensed minister of the gospel, Reverend Webb began a rich avocation as a minister throughout southwest Virginia and northwestern North Carolina; including pastoring Calvary Baptist Church and Calvary Church of Christ, Galax, Virginia.

Dale enriched the lives of many in his community through either the hallways of a school building, sharing the love of God from a church pulpit, or the warmth of his home. Even throughout times of sickness while in the confines of a nursing home, he continued to minister with love to those around him.

He is survived by his wife of 40 years, Carol Beck Webb, the love of his life; a special nephew, Benjamin Carter (Heather) of Wendell, North Carolina, a dear aunt-Francis Webb of Hillsville, Virginia and numerous cousins whom he dearly loved. Also survived by sister and brothers-in-law whom he loved as sisters and brothers-Mary B. Carter and the late Reverend Greg Carter, and Donna B. Parks and the Reverend Randy Parks.

A celebration of life will be held on Friday, January 3, 2020 at the Cliffview Church of God, Galax, Virginia at 11:00 am with the Reverend Randy Parks, Reverend Wendell Horton, Reverend Gary Horton and the Reverend Harold Nelson officiating.

The family will receive friends and family prior to the service from 9:00-11:00 am at the church.

Interment will be at 2:45 pm in Skyline Memory Gardens, Mount Airy, North Carolina.
