Dale was one of the most loving,gentle women I have ever known. Her God Like spirit during her illness has been a great testamony to all who knew her. I will miss our phone calls but I know she is with my husband, her brother, and will not need those Sat. calls he always made to her before his death. I loved her like a sister. My prayers are with all the family during this time and pray Dales testamony will live on in all of your lives. She loved each of you so very much and would want each of you to seek God's comfort during this time. I love you all. Carolyn Coates
