Dale G. Brehm Obituary

Hello,
We wanted to let you, your family and friends know that we have made a small donation to the Army Ranger Lead The Way Fund in honor of Dale Gregory Michael Brehm US Army Sergeant.

We realize that this is a small tribute, but we do this with all respect and sincerity and we want you to know that it is made possible by thousands of like-minded individuals from across the American youth hockey community, their families and friends and others who support our mission.

We will not forget. May God Bless you and keep you safe and strong.

Sincerely,
Charlie Gili & Family

Thinking about you and Ricky today. RLTW bro!

Well, it's been 7 years my brother. Not a day goes by that I don't think about you. I miss you my brother, until we meet again...

Dale and I were in the same 5th grade class at Turlock Christian. I was just thinking about him and wanted to see how he is doing. I'm saddened to learn of his death but am not surprised by his bravery. Even in 5th grade, he was loyal and strong. He showed kindness to me daily, and I remember his friendship fondly. Rest in peace, Dale.

Dale,
Happy Birthday Son! I can't believe you're 30!
Love always,
Mom

My Dearest Son,

It is so hard to believe that you have been gone for five years. Time has not lessened my sorrow or my love for you. I miss you so much. On Monday, you would be celebrating your 29th birthday. I wonder if by now you would have been a father to a couple of blonde haired, mischevious little guys just like you? Even as a tough Ranger, I could always get you to say "I know Mom, you love me all the way to Heaven and back." And I do, my Angel Boy.

Love,
Mom

Dale,
It's been five years since you left us, and it still hasn't gotten any easier. You were a wonderful man, soldier, friend, and husband. I look back on all the pictures I have of you and Raini and the gang and I'm so grateful I have those memories of you. We love and miss you everyday.

To the family of Sgt. Dale G. Brehm:
Please know that just as your loved one remains in your hearts and minds; his sacrifice, and that of your family, remains with the people he died defending. Words cannot express the gratitude we feel for his bravery and selflessness, or the heartache we feel for your loss. God bless and keep you always.

I miss you buddy. Everyday I think of you and what your life would be today. I wish I could could hug you and tell you how much I love you. RIP.

I enjoyed working with at Longs. You will always be remember for the fine man you were, for the army ranger you became. RIP Dale. Never forgotten.

I never met you in life, but hope to meet you in heaven. Thank you for sacrificing for us. I haven't shed tears in decades, but am doing so now. God bless your family.

Happy Birthday brother..... I miss you buddy... I know your above watching keeping us safe... Youll always live in my heart and on my arm...

To the family and friends of Sgt. Dale G. Brehm:
Remembering Dale on the anniversary of his passing. May our fallen heroes never be forgotten!

A few weeks ago, a great friend gave me the gift of a bracelet commemorating Dale's sacrifice. As a former U.S. Army sergeant and an ex-police officer, I hold a special place in my heart for anyone willing to put themselves in harms way for the freedoms of others. I will wear this bracelet every day in Dale's honor. I hope that you will accept my condolences for your loss and my gratitude for raising a man that was strong enough to be a hero. Thank you.

Happy late Birthday Dale!! I just moved back home.... I went to Longs the other day and thought about the last time I saw you. You were working there and were so excited to be going into the Army and being a Ranger. Even though I was in the Navy at the time I was still happy for you! HEHE! I wish you were still here so I could visit with you and Raini. I'll be seeing you.... xoxox

Dale - thinking of you, your family & friends today. We will never forget, you are OUR hero. rest in peace

There is nothing that I can say or do to take away the pain or bring you peace in your time of sorrow, but I will offer you and your family my heart felt condolences. I also offer you my prayers that in time the pain will easy and the memories of your HERO will carry you through each day and night. I want to thank your HERO, for his/her selfless act of becoming a member of the armed forces, his/her willingness to defend the United States of America, all that we hold sacred and for the sacrifice that will forever be etched in the memories of all those who knew him/her. Though tears can never bring him/her back, we hope that our tears express our gratitude for the sacrifice that he/she made and our sorrow at his/her passing. I believe for every fallen HERO there is a star shining brightly up above to remind us of the precious gift we were given.

Your mission on earth is complete and you are now a member of GOD’s Heavenly armed forces. Stand down brave warrior and take your rightful place in Heaven with all the HEROES who have passed before.

I made a special promise to LE RON A. WILSON, a dear family friend who joined the Army with three other friends, one of whom is my son (Le Ron was killed in action on 07/06/07 at the age of 18) on the day he was laid to rest as I touched his coffin, that I would never forget him nor would I forget those that gave their lives for our country before him, with him and after him and so when I came across www.legacy.com, I thought what a great way to keep my promise to Le Ron, so I will continue to leave tributes in each guest book until the day there is no longer the need to leave these tributes to a FALLEN HERO.

REST IN PEACE, HERO, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!

Thank you for the sacrifice made by Sgt Brehm and the sacrifice made by everyone who loves and misses him! May God bless all of you!!

To the Brehm family

I had met Dale a long time ago at a joint training excercise he and I were both involved with when I was in active duty. He was a great guy and I am honored to have known him and served with him. I did not know that he was from Turlock CA. He will be missed. This country needs more soldiers like him.

To the Brehm family and friends; I previously signed Dale's guest book. I visit ANC frequently and each time I am there I always visit/honor Dale. Dale it has been a year since you were taken. You are my hero and you will NEVER be forgotten. Dale your brother/buddy John continues to think of you and he and the others continue to think and miss you.

In Remembrance of this Fine Young Soldier, Sgt. Dale Brehm, on the first anniversary of the day he gave his life for our Country and for Freedom.
May Dale, rest safely in God's Care and know that he is a True American hero, that shall Never Be Forgotten.
May the Peace of the Lord continue to be with the Brehm family.
There will Never Be Enough Ways, to Humbly Thank these Heroes, for their Supreme Sacrifice, my brother among them. KIA-Vietnam 1967.

May you find peace in knowing the love and memories you have, will remain in your heart forever and that this Country Remembers Dale's sacrifice.
I am So Deeply Sorry for your loss.

To the Brehm Family; I received my randomly selected memorial bracelet today, with the name Dale Brehm on it. I'll wear it with pride to remember SGT Brehm and continue to serve faithfully in his honor. God bless SGT Brehm and his family.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Brehm family. We've lost an amazing person who was both a stellar soldier and a fantastic friend. Rest in peace Dale, you are missed.

Brehm Family you have my deepest sympathy and prayers.

Rest in peace at your last post in paradise.

Dear Raini, I’m so sorry for you lost. When Pedro called and told us, it hit very close to home. I know how much Pedro cared about Dale and how much he cares about you. There's no words that could comfort your grief. Our prayers and deepest thoughts are with you. If you need anything, please give me a call or if you need to get away, please come by. You and Dale's family are welcome at our house anytime. Take care. Love Mama Gomez

To the family and friends of Dale Brehm:

I'd like to send my thoughts and prayers to you at this devastating time. Dale was a great guy and will be missed by many, but remembered as a hero.

To the Family of Sgt. dale G. Brehm:

My heart breaks again as I sign yet another guest book of another courgeous young man who gave his life so selflessly. We lost our son 12/1/05.

I know first hand there are no words right now that will bring you the comfort and peace you need. Just know that you are not alone. My heart, thoughts, and prayers are with you all as you mourn this loss. We don't know each other, will probably never meet, but will forever be united in the loss of our Heroes. We have, unfortunately joined a group none of us wanted to join, an ever-growing group of families in this situation. May God grant you peace and strength to get through this and be able once again to smile at a memory rather than have only the tears that flow so easily now. To be so proud of your loved one and so saddened at the same time is a mix of emotions very difficult to deal with. They will never be forgotten, never able to be replaced, but sometime, someday your memories will sustain you. This courageous soldier will forever now be your Angel watching over you all for the rest of your lives. It's what brings me peace and comfort and I hope it will you as well. If you ever want to talk, I'm only an e:mail away. God Bless this courageous soldier and his family.
