Warren Bailey Dalton

Warren Bailey Dalton, promoted to glory, a loving and generous husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family on May 22, 2023, in Woodstock, Ontario. Born on October 9th, 1938, in Albany, Georgia, USA, Warren was a faith-filled man who enjoyed a lifetime of hard work, devotion to his family, and service to his community.

Warren was a true family man, with a heart large enough to encompass his extensive and close-knit family. He is survived by his beloved wife, Eleanor, with whom he shared many years of love, laughter and happiness. Their love created a wonderful family, including their children Darren (Angela), John, Georgia, Angela (Ray) Seamone, and Martin (Tanya). Warren's devotion to his family extended beyond his own children, as he was a proud and caring grandfather to his cherished grandchildren Rick (Robyn) Dubien, Amanda (Gareth Percy), Jared (Matt) Dalton, Lyndsey Bridgett, Paul Dalton, Andrew (Taylor) Seamone, Samuel (Christine) Dalton, Laura (Devin) Seamone, Holly Dalton, and Hannah Dalton. Additionally, Warren's love and generosity touched the lives of his many great-grandchildren, nieces and nephews who miss him dearly. Warren is predeceased by his grandchildren Nathan Dalton, and Cornelius Dalton,

Over the years, Warren's work ethic and passion for his trade led him to various careers, including farming and truck driving and soldier (82nd Airborne). A hard worker through and through, he spent long hours on the road and on his farm not just for his family, but for the whole community, building relationships and creating a sense of camaraderie with his neighbors and colleagues. He was also actively involved in various associations focused on improving community life, strengthening Warren's faith in the goodness of humanity. He was a long-time member of the Burgessville United Church.

In his time here on earth, Warren was known for his loving nature, his infectious sense of humor and his generous spirit. He consistently demonstrated compassion, kindness and empathy, making him beloved by those in his community. Warren possessed a gentle soul and a faith-filled heart that enabled him to weather life’s storms with grace and dignity.

As we remember Warren, it's important to celebrate the love, joy and warmth that he brought to everyone's lives. His memory will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him. Our cherished family patriarch, Warren Bailey Dalton, is now reunited with his Creator, whom he loved so dearly.

Warren's passing leaves behind a legacy of love, generosity and faith. Throughout his life, he touched and shaped the lives of so many, sharing his warmth, his laughter, and his deep-rooted belief in the importance of family and faith. The world has lost a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and friend, but Heaven has gained an angel who, now, watches over us all.
