Mrs. Geneva Florazell "Dale" Tolleson, age 93, entered into the eternal rest of her Lord Saturday morning, March 19, 2022, at the Edgewood Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Byram. She was born in Union, MS on November 22, 1928, to George Walter and Geneva Davidson Bounds. Known to many as "Mamaw" or "Dale", she loved to meet new friends and never met a stranger. Dale had a unique way of meeting people and she always talked about her faith, how good God was and how good He had been to her. Dale loved to cook for others and would invite them over to enjoy her meals, especially after her beloved "T.W." passed away. She was also passionate about selling Avon, Stanley and Watkins products. In selling these products, she would find opportunities to tell about the saving Gospel of Acts 2:38. In witnessing, "It is for everybody", she would say. As a hobby, Dale also enjoyed canning pickles, jellies and relish. She also had a "green thumb" and enjoyed rooting flowers as a way of enjoying God's creation.
