Dewey Glidden Lane Jr.

Dewey Glidden Lane Jr., 76, of Church Hill, TN, left his earthly body behind to be ushered into the arms of Jesus, after a brief and courageous health battle.

Dewey is survived by his daughter, Holly Lane. Grandchildren: Ava Ingle (David), Aaron Large, and Ty Large. Holly’s mother, Edie Lane. Siblings: Wilma Tipton, Billy Lane, and Mildred Clonce.

Dewey was drafted into the United States Army shortly after high school at Church Hill High School, and was honorably discharged in April 1972. He worked at Kingsport Press, AFG Industries, and Donihe Graphics, from which he retired.

Beyond his career, Dewey was a loving and caring father, grandfather, brother, and friend; leaving behind shoes no other could ever fill.
