    Dallas J. Dye, 96, passed away on August 29, 2024 in Fishersville, VA. Dallas was born in Swords Creek, VA on Jan 14, 1928. He served in WWII in various operations in the occupation, including guarding war criminals at Nuremberg. Afterward, he committed to his studies at VT, earning a B.S. in Accounting. He met the love of his life, Danese Graham at the Lyric Theatre on College Avenue in early 1954 and they married on Dec 26, 1954.

    Dallas worked as a CPA for twelve years in Bristol, TN, then moved his family back to Blacksburg, VA to join Graves Construction where he later became a partner. Dallas and Danese resided in Blacksburg for 54 years, building lifelong relationships including their brothers and sisters at Blacksburg Church of Christ. Dallas enjoyed countless adventures hunting, fishing, and walking outdoors with family and friends.

    Dallas is survived by his loving wife Danese, sons Michael and Mark, daughter Jennifer (Bradley), five grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. Dallas was a strong Christian, a devoted family man, and a dear friend to so many.

    A graveside service will be held at 10:00 am on April 19, 2025, at Westview Cemetery, followed by a celebration of life at Blacksburg Church of Christ.
