Lance David Dees

We lost a treasured soul this past weekend, 42 years young.....Lance David Dees, (August 07,1977--June 06, 2020) left this world for his Angel's Wings & rejoined all the greats like BoBo, Mamaw, Aunt Teresa, momma Pat & many others.

Lance "Hammer" Dees will be greatly missed by family, friends, & many loved ones. So many lives were touched by him and so many will be deeply affected by his loss.

He is preceded by Parents: Larry David "BoBo" Dees (deceased), Elizabeth Ann "Buff" Little, and stepmom, Sherry Scott-Dees. Grandparents: Etta Ray "Mamaw" Dixon-Dees (D), Roxford "Rocky" Dees (D), Robert Lee "Pawpaw" & Pat Little (D) He is survived by spouse, Amanda Leigh (Kingery/Day) Dees- son, Lance David Dees Jr., step-sons Kenneth Austin Day & Kristopher Wayne Jones. Siblings: Jimmy & wife Stephanie Little, Leslie & husband Jonathan Green, DeeAnn & husband, Carl Taylor, Step-siblings: Brittney Scott Lee & Scott Eckles. and other family like Shane Kyser, Kenny & wife Vicky Barefield, Tammy Kyser-Lewis, Erin-Michelle Dees, Stephanie Cocran-Dees, Jonathan Kyser, Jason Kyser, as well as aunts and uncles just too many to mention here.

His favorite things: furr-daughter "Zoey", Alabama Football (Rooollll Tide), working or building with his hands (even when he wasn't on a jobsite), and doing projects with Shane. Also, going to the hunting camp Kyser (mainly to sleep), being on the River or the Gulf, and being there for family, especially our boys.

"Life ain't always Beautiful.........but it's a Beautiful Ride".............Gary Allan

He is a man that will be dearly missed. He was near and dear to too many. A good-working, steadfast, sarcastic, handsome, but reserved man. He was so hard-headed and stubborn just like BoBo used to be, but he was our stubborn, bull of a man.

His memories, both good and bad will stay with us for always & forever.....no one can destroy or trash those or take them away. Just rejoice in the good ones for they will keep his spirit alive in our hearts.

We must live on with tears in our eyes but sorrow as well as hope and his laughter in our hearts. Lance was a soft-hearted man but he would not want us to be sad or upset. He could make the saddest person in the world, just bend over from laughter. He would want us to celebrate his life, rejoice in his memories, and take Faith in the Lord. Such a crazy roller coaster this life can become, exiting the ride only when the good Lord decides our fate.

Psalms 73:26~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and portion forever~~~~~~~~~~~
