A memorial service will be held at 1pm Thursday, February 19, 2026, at Fair Funeral Home Chapel. Visitation will be held one hour prior to the service. Burial will follow at Dan View Cemetery.
Wallace was born February 3, 1945, to the late Jesse “bad eye” and Hallie Dishmon. He retired from Bassett Furniture in Martinsville. He is most known as a mechanic throughout town. He ran a service station in Draper for several years and could fix anything he set his mind to. He could be found most days in his retirement piddling out in the garage at home. He had a love for hot rods and wheeling and dealing.
Surviving him are his wife, Paula Dishmon; children, Dean Dishmon of Danville VA, Denise (Alan) Wilson of Eden NC and Michael (Mandi) Dishmon of Reidsville; and an abundance of grandkids he loved dearly; one beautiful great-granddaughter and his sister, Margaret. Also his fur-babies left behind, Max, Chloe and Bear.
In addition to his parents Wallace is preceded in death by his sons, Wally Dishmon and Keith Dishmon; siblings, Carol, Ann, William, Bub and Booker; special friend, Nathaniel Fitts.
