Daniel, Wallace S.

9/25/1919 9/15/2002 Wallace S. Daniel, 82, went home to be with his Lord 
after a courageous twenty- three year battle with several kinds of cancer, 
the last one being lung and colon. He fought so bravely through each one, 
never complaining, showing so much courage, strength and determination to 
win each battle. As a young man he joined the Civilian Conservation Corps 
and worked in many areas of the country. Following that he joined the Army 
and was a very proud WWII veteran, having served with the Army Signal 
Corps, and took part in the Normandy 'D' day invasion. In the last several 
years he served as Treasurer, Vice-President and currently President of 
the local chapter of the CCC, Will Rogers #10, an organization he put his 
whole heart into. His biggest accomplishment in life though was being a 
wonderful husband, father and PaPa. He cherished his grandchildren and 
spent so much time reading to and teaching them to love life and all of 
God's living things. He loved fishing and was an avid gardener when 
physically able, having a particular love for flowers. He never complained 
or said a bad word to anyone, and was the most considerate and loving 
person on this earth. He will most definitely be missed by anyone who knew 
and spent time with him. He was a member of Britton Baptist Church, but 
had been unable to attend services for a long time due to his illness. He 
missed that very much. He was preceded in death by his parents, two 
sisters and a brother. He is survived by his wife, Mildred, his daughter, 
Debbie Cutchall and husband Jim, his grandchildren, Jamie and Kimberly, a 
sister, Alice of Vista, CA, and a brother, Paul and wife Pat of Fox, AR. 
e was 'the wind beneath our wings', making us all better people for 
knowing him. We were so lucky to have him in our lives for 82 years, and 
are so happy that he is in total peace now in his final home. His family 
would like to suggest that memorial donations be made in his name to the 
cancer center of your choice. We also would like to thank Dr. Clarence 
Robison, Dr. Farouk Kanaa and staff, especially Renee, and Mercy Hospice 
for their loving care of daddy through his many illnesses. Visitation will 
be Wed. from 12:00-8:00 pm, with services being held on Thurs., Sept. 
19th, 10:00 a.m. at Demuth Funeral Home. DEMUTH FUNERAL HOME 1145 W. 
Britton Rd. 843-5521
