Dale Leroy Robison was born February 2, 1935, at rural Caney, the ninth of ten children to Neddie Jasper Robison and Ida Martha [[][[]]Fuqua] Robison. He was raised in the Tyro/Caney area, attending schools in Caney.
Dale enjoyed animals of all kinds and had a kindred spirit with horses. His family recalled he was a horse racing jockey, riding common breed and thoroughbred horses, running in over two thousand events during his career. Dale will be remembered locally around Caney for his love of animals, feeding his home-town dogs and cats. It was not unusual to see Dale walking from north-to-south, east-to-west in Caney, showing concern and caring for many family pets - never his own, but he would love them just the same.
Dale Robison, 81, passed away Saturday, October 29, 2016, at Guest Home Estate, Caney. Dale's broad smile, gentle spirit and teasing will be ;missed by all who knew him.
Dale is survived by six daughters, Teresa Robison, Bedford, PA, Lori Foor, Everette, PA, Ruth Dunkle, Mill Creek, PA, Debra Jenkins, Crossville, TN, Dawn Lutz, and Lisa Pittman; five sisters: Lola Gillham, Caney, Martha Fowler, Mechanicsville, Maryland, Clara Coltharp, Blackwell, Oklahoma, Virgie Allison, Coffeyville, Kansas, and Ruth Ann Hicks, Hot Springs, Arkansas; numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. Dale was preceded in death by his parents, and four brothers - Harry, Marion, Charles, and Billy; and several nieces and nephews.
Memorial Services are scheduled for 11:00am, Monday, November 7, 2016, at First Christian Church, Caney, with Pastor Bill Wright officiating. Online condolences can be shared at www.pottsfuneralhome.com.
