Robert Daniel "Dan" Stubblefield

On September 7, 2023, Dan Stubblefield passed away at the age of 76 years. He will be forever fondly remembered by his beloved wife and best friend of 41 years, Elizabeth. A native of Alabama, Dan attended Jacksonville State University, UC Santa Cruz and Monterey Peninsula College.
Dan was born January 6, 1947 in Sylacauga, Alabama and grew up in Fayetteville, Gantts Quarry and Sylacauga. He was a big Alabama Football fan and especially enjoyed all of their championship games. He was also a Braves fan.
He was a member of the Church of Christ since 1958 and in his later years attended Macland Road, Burnt Hickory and Austell Road congregations in Marietta, Georgia.
Dan fondly remembers the elders who took a large part in forming the man he became: Waymon Masters, Cons Milner, Reese Hughes, Byron Hanson, BE “Sonny” Riggins, Julius Gray, Brother Baxter, “Ruth” Parker, Brother Payton, Victor Blankenship, Brother Blackmon, R.D. Norred, Marion Carter, Brother Bettis, and Stanley Carter.

In Dan’s career he was an Operations Manager for several consumer finance and mortgage companies including: Chase, Manufacturers Hanover, American General, and Credithrift.
