Dale Lee McBrayer

HURST - Dale was born in Houston to Jeri and Woody Skelton. He was second born of four children. Dale became a machinist at the age of 18.
Dale lived to make people laugh. Dale loved Jesus Christ and made a point to pray every morning for everyone in his family by name. He liked listening to music on the patio or in his backyard. He loved listening to Bo and Jim in the mornings on 92.5. He loved his trips to coast and visiting any body of water. He was an amazing cook, but he never wanted any help in the kitchen.
