Dale was one of the finest men I have ever known. The respect I feel for him will stay with me for the rest of my life.He was a man's man, not verbose, simply a presence that could be felt whenever you were around him.My heart goes out to Jeannine and Kris for their loss. I hope the warm memories will quickly overcome the sense of loss they feel. Sincerely, Kevin Hedberg
