Delois “Jean” (Dye) Gaddie, 85, of Elizabethtown, Kentucky, passed peacefully into the presence of her Lord and Savior on Saturday, April 11, 2026.
Jean retired as a manager from Comcast Cable Company in Elizabethtown, where she was known for her strong leadership and kind spirit. Outside of work, her greatest joy was caring for her family. She expressed her love through home-cooked meals, always making sure no one left her table hungry. Her kitchen was a place of warmth, laughter, and togetherness.
Jean was preceded in death by her parents Damon Roscoe and Bessie Lee Murray Dye; two brothers DeWayne and Ronnie Dye; and a sister Gloria June Talley.
She is survived by her husband, Donnie Gene Gaddie; a son Barry (Cathy) Gaddie of Birmingham, Alabama; a daughter LaDonna (Ken) Dozer of Elizabethtown; her grandchildren, Rod Gaddie, Ben Gaddie, Ryan Dozer, and Peyton (Conor) Lineberger; a sister, Linda (David) Cross of Tennessee; a sister-in-law, Carolyn Dye of Florida; a brother-in-law, Leon Davis of Campbellsville; and several nieces and nephews.
