W T "Dub" Stone Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

W.T. Stone Pickens, South Carolina W.T. Stone son of Zachariah R. Stone and Lula Hudson Stone was born February 27, 1935. He died at his home August 07, 2017 with his wife Frances, his children, grandchildren, brother in-law, sister’s in-law and his best friend and sidekick, Dave, by his side. Dub was like most children of the depression; he went to work at a very young age. The first time he climbed up on a “Big Machine” it was a lifelong love. He rose early every morning and was up on a machine before the sun came up. He LOVED every minute of it! He drove the first turn-a pull in the state of SC from Florida in 1955. In 1965 his life was forever changed when he accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior. He was called to preach in 1974, he pastored Welcome Home Freewill Baptist Church, Hopewell Baptist Church and founded New Hope Baptist Church. With very little formal education, Dub was a very wise man, although reading and writing were a challenge for him- he could read “and quote” his bible. He shared the good new far and wide. Dub loved his family and loved them well. Each one has a treasure chest of memories they will hold dear and take with them all the days they live. His wisdom will be shared for generations and his legacy will last forever through those he’s leaving behind…. His wife of 25 years Frances J. Hunnicutt Stone, His Kids… Sharon Taylor, Tina & Barry McCarter, Tim & Connie Stone, Marie & Joel Pritchett, Sonya & Brent Skidmore.
