Steve Dupree Obituary
A Celebration of his life will be held Friday, January 2, 2009, at 3:00 p.m., at Bethany Hills Baptist Church, 11701 Leesville Rd., Raleigh, NC 27613.
The family will receive friends January 1, 2009 at Brown-Wynne Funeral Home, 1701 E. Millbrook Road, Raleigh, NC 27609, from 6:00-9:00 p.m.
Steve was born March 22, 1953 in Rusk, TX, but lived in Raleigh, since 1992.
He was preceded in death by Roy Keith Dupree, his brother, and his father, Grady E. Dupree.
He is survived by his wife of 20 years, Shelley Dupree; their three "furkids", all of Raleigh; his mother, Margie Dupree; his brother, Greg Dupree and wife, Dana; a niece, Stacey, and husband, Philip; a nephew, Josh, and wife, Jessica; two great-nieces; and one stepsister, Carolyn all of McKinney, TX. He is also survived by brothers-in law, Lee Barton and family of Florence, SC and Lennie Barton and family of Raleigh; mother-in law, Judy Barton of Garner; and father-in-law, Link Barton and wife, Nancy of Eden.
Steve was an avid golfer who always tried to beat his brother-in-laws. He was also the #1 Texas Longhorn fan in NC; a dedicated husband, uncle, church worker, and friend to all. Steve truly had a servants heart, a zest for life, and a smile for everyone. He will be sorely missed.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the New Covenant Fellowship Building Fund, 10224 Bailywick Rd., Raleigh, NC 27613, in honor of Steve.
