Dale was always a supportive, engaging, charming and (if I may add "discrete") man. He lives in my memory and I am sure hundreds of New Orleanians' memories as a gentleman. One of the quiet giants who made everyone in his presence larger and better off for being there.

May God give you strength during this difficult time. Don't lose hope. When the sun goes down. The stars come out. "You were my mentor". An understanding Boss. You were there for me.
