April 14, 1930 - June 22, 2022

Cloyce Dale Nicholson, age 92, of Mountain Home, Arkansas, passed from this life into Glory on Wednesday, June 22, 2022. Dale was born on April 14, 1930, in Ash Flat, AR, to Cloyce Vernon and Iva (Holt) Nicholson.
In 1953, Dale married the love of his life, Patsy Sue Minton, whom he met while employed with Mid-South Plumbing & Electric in Jonesboro, AR. They celebrated 68 years together, including a successful 50+ year career in the wholesale plumbing and electric supply business. After his time at Mid-South, Dale operated and/or owned similar businesses in Blytheville, AR; Poplar Bluff, MO; and Mountain Home, with Pat often working alongside him. The couple most recently owned/operated National Supply Company in Mountain Home until their retirement in 2011. Prior to this career, Dale served in the U.S. Army during the Korean Conflict.
Dale professed his faith in Jesus Christ for salvation in 1992. He and Pat have been members of EastSide Baptist Church in Mountain Home since 2014.
As an avid gardener, even up to age 90, Dale freely shared his abundant harvest with family, friends, and neighbors. His okra, tomatoes and hot peppers were delicious! He also shared his love of Lake Norfork and fun on it for many years with his family and their friends.
He was preceded in death by his father and mother; his older brother, William Christopher Nicholson; and his son, Richard Scott Nicholson.
