Dale Vallance Mancini passed away on November 13, 2025, on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. She was 75.

Dale was born on April 9, 1950, in Pennsylvania to her parents, Dale and Mildred Vallance. She graduated from Haverford Senior High and eventually moved to Columbia, Maryland, where she began a successful career with Woodward & Lothrop.

Dale married Raymond Mancini in 1992 and shortly thereafter she retired. Dale and Ray enjoyed a beautiful life together, sailing, traveling and enjoying many adventures in both Maryland and Florida with their friends and family. Dale enjoyed sewing, knitting, cooking and was an amazing, caring individual inside and out.

Dale is survived by her three stepchildren to include: Joseph, Dante and Jennifer Mancini. She also is survived by her Daughter-in-law, Melissa Mancini and her three beautiful grandchildren to include: Taylor and Nicholas Mancini, and Brittany Miller.

We will have a Service and Celebration of Life for Dale in Maryland, at a later date (which will be posted on her Facebook page). Dale will be laid to rest alongside her late husband, Raymond.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to The Parkinson's Foundation.
