Reverend Daniel Clarence Nalley
of Benton, AR
May 14, 1928 - December 14, 2024
Reverend Daniel Clarence Nalley left this world for his heavenly home on December 14, 2024 in Little Rock, Arkansas. He was born on May 14, 1928 in Benton, Arkansas to his late parents, Samuel David Nalley and Pearl Clara (Ritz) Nalley. He is preceded in death by his wife, Bobbie Jean Nalley; one sister, Mary Bledsoe and one brother, James Nalley.
Daniel enlisted in the Marines for the duration of World War II and served in China prior to being honorably discharged. After serving his country, he married the love of his life, Bobbie Jean (Ledbetter) Nalley. They were blissfully married for 69 ½ years.
He is survived by his four loving daughters, Danita Hyrkas (Gerald) of Alexander, Arkansas, Victoria Garner (Wayne) of Little Rock, Arkansas, Karen Barrett (David) of Granbury, Texas and Lori Permenter (David) of Mansfield, Texas; seven grandchildren, Dana, Gerilyn, Katrina, Kristin, Travis, Timothy and Nate; thirty-one great-grandchildren; one sister, Esther Bishop of Kaufman, Texas and one brother, Samuel Nalley of Chattanooga, Tennessee
Daniel began his ministry as a youth leader at the United Pentecostal Church in Long Beach, California. In 1959, he felt the Lord calling him to open a new church in a storefront building in Southgate, California. That church flourished under his leadership and it then moved to Bell Gardens, California in 1973. His loving, compassionate spirit has inspired, encouraged and nurtured the lives of many over the years. He has been the rock to lean on with a constant, never wavering source of wisdom, strength and stability.
