Dale was my brother-in-law for many years, and we always had so much fun at family gatherings. One year we all went to Florida and rented a couple condos on the beach and had a blast. So much fun and so many good memories. I was so saddened to see that he had passed away. My thoughts are with all his family, but especially with Christopher, my nephew. May all your memories of your dad help you through these hard times. Love, Aunt Amy
