In loving memory of Berneatha Coe Dallas

 July 8, 1948 – January 21, 2024

On Sunday, January 21, 2024, our beloved mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and friend passed away from this world. Although our hearts are deeply saddened by the passing of our beloved, Ms. Berneatha Coe Dallas, we will continue to be strong because of strong spiritual belief.

Our beloved, Berneatha Coe Dallas, was born on July 8, 1948 in Darlington County. She was the loving daughter of the late Major Coe and Mary Louise Addison. She received her education in the public schools of Darlington County. She had aspirations of becoming a nurse and went to nursing school.

Ms. Dallas realized early in life that it was important to have a strong religious belief. Because of her beliefs, she was a faithful member of the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah Witness of Hartsville, SC. At the hall, she enjoyed the spoken word and words of inspiration. She formed a genuine love for sharing the word with anyone she came into contact with.

Ms. Dallas was a hardworking woman and provided for her family which impacted and made so many of their lives easier. She was employed at Sara Lee Hosiery (Legg’s) for 50 plus years until retirement. 

Ms. Dallas believed strongly in caring for family members. She had such a genuine and compassionate love for her kids and grandkids: blood and of love.

She was preceded in death by, her sister, Margaret Coe Taylor. 

Left to cherish her memories are: her children: a daughter, Beverly Rochelle Dallas Carroway of Columbia, SC and two sons, Ernest Dallas III of Columbia, SC and Derrick Joe Dallas of Charlotte, NC; stepdaughter, Lorraine Vece (Brent) Germaine; four sisters: Vernette (Roosevelt) Thompson, Rosetta Koger, Mary Bradham and Betty (Kenny) Blakeney; brother, Leverne (Thelma) Coe; two aunts: Barbara Coe and Mary Addison; two special people: Eddie Hough and Lena George; 10 grandchildren of blood and of love, 13 great-grandchildren and one on the way; and a host of nieces, nephews and friends both near and far.
