Tupelo- Madine Hale Dickey, 76, transitioned to her eternal home in the presence of her Lord and Savior on Friday, April 19, 2024 at The North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo. Madine was born on April 26, 1947 to the late Thomas Hale and Bessie Irene Willis Hale in the Gilvo community of Lee County. Madine was a lifelong resident of Lee County. She worked in several factories, her last being Cooper Tire. She was a faithful member of Apostolic Life Church (Formerly known as Cedar Grove Pentecostal) in Tupelo, where she was very active in the life of the church. She enjoyed going fishing and working in her flower garden, but the church was her life. She read her Bible faithfully, and when she was given the opportunity, she told people about the love of her Lord. She really loved to travel with her church family on trips. Madine was a very talented lady. She made handmade crafts that were sculpted into roses that she gave to people as a gift from her heart. She also loved making ceramics to give to others as gifts. Madine was a true servant of the Lord and had a heart of love, putting God, her church and family as priorities.
