Dear Joanne and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you in your loss of Dale. I will always remember Dale's jovial personality and how kind the two of you and other members of your family were to my Dad. I just learned of Dale's illness and passing from a note on Patty and Mike's annual Christmas card.
May God bless you and bring you peace!
Fondly,

I offer my condolences to the Condon family, including Joanne, Cathy and Cindy, who offered near daily support while Dale was at Mt. Sinai. I am so sorry to hear he has passed, and know that he was a fighter with a loving, supportive family. I am thankful to have participated as a student in his physical therapy rehab at Mt. Sinai, and will always think fondly of him and his family. God bless you all, and I wish you strength through this difficult time.

Joann and family,
I just found out about Dale.
My thoughts and prayers go out to your whole family. We have lost touch in the past few years, but I have thought of you both so much.
I know you will always have great "memories". Dale was a wonderful and caring person. The three of us always had a great time together. Much Love, Jean Stratton :-))
