Precious Memories My eyes do see. My ears do hear. I am still me, so let’s be clear. My memory may fade, My walk may slow. I am Me inside, don’t let me go.

Obituary Mr. Dan Elain Mobley, Jr., affectionately known to many as “Lain”, transitioned from his earthly home to his heavenly home on Friday, February 9, 2018 at Palmetto Richland Hospice. He was born on January 27, 1944 to the late Mr. Dan Elain Mobley, Sr. and Mrs. Mildred Harris Mobley. Dan was a 1962 graduate of McCrorey-Liston High School. After graduation, he was first employed at Superior Stone Company in Rion, SC. He retired from Michelin in Winnsboro, SC after 36 years of service as a Maintenance Supervisor. Dan was a faithful member of New Hope African Methodist Episcopal Church. He served on the Board of Trustees and the Men’s Choir. He was also the grounds keeper and maintenance worker for the church. He served in this capacity until his health declined. Dan married his high school sweetheart on July 13, 1963 and to this union two daughters were born – Elena and Alicia. Dan enjoyed cooking for his family and fishing with his friends.

When you couldn’t remember our names, we never forgot yours. You will always be Husband, Daddy, Granddaddy, Brother, Uncle and Friend. Our love for you will never fade. We love you Dan Elain.
