Richard Lee Dasher

Richard Lee Dasher, Sr. passed away peacefully on June 4, 2021 at the age of eighty-six. He was a lifelong resident of Glennville, Georgia. Richard graduated from Glennville High School in 1954 and went on to own Glennville Hardware for thirty years and operate a pecan farm. He loved the outdoors, farming, and working on new projects. His greatest joy came from spending time with his family, who lovingly referred to him as “Da”. He will be remembered for his strength and hard-working values, but, most of all, for his kind and loving nature. He was a member of First Baptist Church of Glennville, Georgia and preceded in death by his parents, Arthur D. and Beulah Lee Rogers Dasher; his son, Richard Lee Dasher, Jr.; siblings, James Dasher, Roger Dasher, Wyndell Reynolds, Eloise Griner and Jerry Dasher.
