Evan Leon Dancey

October 29, 1994 — October 14, 2022

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Evan Leon Dancey, 27, of Mocksville, formerly of Statesville on Friday, October 14, 2022. He went home to be with his Heavenly Father.

He was born in Iredell County on October 29, 1994, to Josh Dancey and Amy Mendoza Williams.

Evan was a 2013 graduate of South Iredell High School where he played football, and during his senior year, the team won the State Championship, and he was very proud of that. He loved all sports, but football was his favorite, and he was a Panthers fan. He also loved the Lakers and Lebron James. Evan was a Christian and loved people. He never met a stranger and loved talking to everyone he met. He enjoyed music, singing, dancing, and playing Xbox games. More than anything, he loved his family and would do anything for them.

He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Martin Mendoza.

Those left to cherish his memory include his wife, Haley Dixon Dancey, two daughters, Haven Elizabeth Dancey and Emerson Rose Dancey, parents, Josh Dancey (Kathleen), Amy Mendoza Williams (Andrew), a special aunt and uncle that were like second parents to him, Sasha and Eric St. John, three brothers, Timberland Stadler, Garrett Dancey, Nathan Dancey, two sisters, Lauren Dancey, Isariah Istvan, "special siblings", Austin St. John (Amber), Kirkland St. John, Jeshua St. John, Audrianna Wilkinson (Brayland), maternal grandmother, Hilda Wyatt, paternal grandparents, Reuben Dancey (Sherry), Patricia Gagnon, maternal step-grandmother, Lillian Mendoza and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins who loved him dearly.
