Memorial celebration: 11 a.m. Wednesday, June 12, at Wade Family Funeral Home Chapel, 4140 W. Pioneer Parkway, Arlington, with Rev. Bobby Bridges officiating. Interment: At a later date in Mount Olivet Cemetery, Fort Worth. Dana was born on June 28, 1956, in Fort Worth to Louis Edwin Nabors and Jo Evelyn Abbott Nabors. A resident of Arlington most of her life, she was a 1974 graduate of Arlington High. Dana was a friend to everyone she met. Her smile lit up the room, and providing joy to others gave great meaning to her life. Don't be surprised if you heard her humming a tune on one of her walks. She believed everyone should march to the beat of their own drum. Dana treasured family time. She was an artist, a lover of music and chocolate, a mermaid at heart, and always up for an adventure. You could find her off the beaten path. Our ray of sunshine will be missed by all who knew her. Survivors: Daughter, Lindsey Smith and her son, Luke; son, Garrett Smith and Rosie Otieno and their daughter, Autumn; parents, Louis and Jo Evelyn Nabors; sisters, Christy Crump and husband, Paul, Merrell Woolf and husband, David, and Kendell Vaught and husband, Chuck; special friend, Mike Nanny; 17 nieces and nephews; and her beloved dog, Toby.
