Raleigh Henderson Dulaney



Raleigh Henderson Dulaney CHARLOTTE - Mrs. 
Raleigh H. Dulaney of Charlotte and Blowing 
Rock, NC passed away on July 16, 2013, at 
her home in Charlotte after a brave, 24-year 
fight against breast cancer. Born on February 
14, 1938, Raleigh was the daughter of the late 
Homer Eugene Henderson and Minifred Smith 
Henderson. She grew up in Houston, Texas 
where she graduated from Lamar High School. 
Raleigh attended Randolph-Macon Woman's College but returned after 
the death of her father to attend the University of Texas, where she was a 
member of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority. She graduated from the University
 of Houston. She remained an avid Longhorn fan, celebrating their football 
triumphs while ringing her cowbell. At age 16, while visiting her aunt in 
Blowing Rock, she met Joseph Daingerfield Dulaney at Westglow, his 
family home. They were married on August 19, 1961, and remained 
married for almost 52 years. Their love of Blowing Rock kept them 
returning every year to enjoy their many friends, play bridge, and continue 
their appreciation of art. Raleigh had an amazing memory for times and 
places that meant much to her and loved giving little presents or sending 
articles from the paper to her friends about their interests. She treasured 
more than anything spending time with her family, including her dogs. 
In addition to her husband Joe, Raleigh is survived by her son Joseph 
Daingerfield Dulaney, Jr. (Dain) and his wife, Anna Rouse Dulaney; 
her daughter, Anna Dulaney Butler and her husband Craig Thomas 
Butler; her grandchildren, Joseph Daingerfield Dulaney, III (Tripp), 
Anna Hawkins Dulaney, Rebecca Elizabeth Rouse, Isabel Casey Butler, 
Danielle Carina Butler, Joshua Jorge Butler and her dog, Oscar; her 
extended family, Elliott Daingerfield Dulaney and his wife Julie 
Reynolds Dulaney, her Texas family, Minifred Boyles Trigg, Agnes 
Boyles Moritz and her husband, Burt Edwin Moritz, and their children 
and grandchildren. Raleigh taught preschool at Christ Episcopal 
 Church, and volunteered at Winghaven, the Mint Museum of Charlotte, 
the Blowing Rock Art and History Museum (BRAHM), Urban 
Ministries of Charlotte, the Crisis Assistance Ministry, and Charlotte
 Country Day School. She was a member of the Junior League of 
Charlotte, the Charlotte Debutante Club and the Blowing Rock Country 
Club. She was a long time member of both Christ Episcopal Church 
and St. Mary of the Hills Episcopal Church. The family will receive
