Service Saturday for Dale Wayne Woods

Dale Wayne Woods, Clarita, Oklahoma died on December 8, 2019 at the age of 82.  He literally was the man, the myth, the legend.  Men wanted to be him and women wanted to be with him.

Dale loved turkey and dressing, Budweiser and Smirnoff screwdrivers.  He loved watching old westerns like “Gunsmoke,” raising cattle, rabbits but mostly loved beautiful women. Marshall Matt Dillion, Ben Cartwright, Charlie Harper and Audie Murphy were his TV heroes but he was a hero to his family, and he was very much adored.

There isn’t enough space here, nor in the Clarita phonebook,  to list all of the women of his past.  He attracted more women than a shoe sale at Macy’s. He was married when he was really young, but it unfortunately did not last.  Dale never was a quitter though, so he gave it a few more shots to try and get it right. It unfortunately never worked out with any of his wives but he fortunately gained many adventures.  He lived his life to the fullest every day and never looked back.

Dale graduated school in Clarita, OK, proudly served his country in the USAF, worked in construction and retired as a rancher, which was his true passion.   

Dale was preceded in death by his father James Woods, mother Tennie Marie Woods, brothers Harvey Royce Woods and Billy Joe Woods, brother in law T.O. Williams, sisters in law Nancy Woods, Lorene Woods and nephews Royce Woods and James Woods.  He is survived by his sister Juanita Woods, brothers Jimmy Woods and Harold Woods, many nephews and nieces and three estranged daughters and a son.   

Memorial Services will be held for Dale Wayne Woods at the Clarita Community Center on January 11, 2020 at noon. We encourage you to come out and visit with his family and friends to share your stories and memories.
