Publish in a newspaper

Dawendall Patrick White, age 48, of LaGrange, passed away on September 2, 2025. He was born on August 25, 1977, in Austell, Georgia, to the late Randy White and Patricia Schofill White.

Dawendall worked as an Electrical Maintenance Technician at Henkel Corporation, where he was known for his dedication and hard work. More than anything, he will be remembered as a loving husband, father, brother, and friend. His greatest joy was spending time with his family and friends, creating memories that will be cherished for years to come. When Dawendall was not working at Henkel, he was typically found in his shop doing various projects to lend a helping hand to others. Some of his favorite pastimes included fishing, attending dirt track races, and supporting his kids and their hobbies.

He is survived by his wife, Tracy White; daughter, Kassidy White; sons, Austin Taylor (Michala) and Andrew Taylor (Rachel); sister, Michelle Lian (John); and his beloved grandchildren, Ezra, Ollie, Evie, and Rowyn. He also leaves behind nieces, nephews, extended family, and many friends who will miss him deeply.

The family will receive friends on Saturday, September 6, 2025, from 10:00 to 11:00 a.m. at Faith Baptist Church. A funeral service will follow at 11:00 a.m. at the church, with Pastor Donald Yancy officiating. Graveside services will be held at 3:30 p.m. at the Big Creek Missionary Baptist Church, 739 Big Creek Rd, Rebecca, GA 31783. Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers during this challenging time.
