Elvis Dale Shankles
August 30, 1947 - December 11, 2019

Elvis Dale Shankles, 72, passed into the arms of our loving LORD, Wednesday, December 11, 2019 surrounded by his family at home in Hickory Creek.

Dale Shankles was born on August 30, 1947 in Dallas to Charles Elvis and Jewel Loveda (Irwin) Shankles. He was married to Sylvia Argandona on December 26, 1975 at the Scyene Road Church of Christ in Dallas. He graduated from Texas A&M with a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture. He served in the United States Army Infantry and was a member of the Eastside Church of Christ in Denton.

Dale is survived by his wife, Sylvia Shankles of Hickory Creek; son, Elvis “Chip” Greenwood Shankles and his wife Tarra, and granddaughter (his princess) Kinsley of Aubrey; son, Gabriel Oakheart Shankles of Lewisville; sister, Veda Johnson of Round Rock.

Dale‘s favorite verses were:

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

John 15:13 ESV

Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.



Dale used to often say, There are only three things I know for sure...

1). I know that God is

2). I know that God is Good

3). And I know that God holds me fast
