Cornelius Dale Sheffield
October 4, 1954 – September 19, 2024

Cornelius Dale Sheffield, lovingly known as Dale, was born on October 4, 1954, to Dan Jackson and Mildred Sheffield of Vernon, Florida. Dale was educated in the Washington County Public School System and spent his life surrounded by the love and care of family and friends.

On Monday, September 19, 2024, our Heavenly Father called Dale home to eternal rest. He was preceded in death by his parents, Daniel Jackson and Mildred Sheffield; two brothers, Whittie Sheffield and Jimmy Sheffield; and two sisters, Gloria Jackson and Jacqueline Jackson.

Dale will be deeply missed by his surviving sisters: Cora Coleman of Middletown, CT; Leona (Charles) Worlds of Cocoa Beach, FL; Dollie Edwards and Betty Sheffield, both of Vernon, FL. His memory will also be cherished by a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and many friends.

The family extends a heartfelt thanks to Ms. Margie Brown and her family for welcoming Dale into their group home, where he lived for many years, and was treated like one of their own.

Dale's presence in our lives will be missed, and the memories of his kindness, warmth, and spirit will remain in our hearts forever.
