To Dales family.......... Dale was my first cousin he was a wonderful person to be around. How my Dad HB Warner loved Dale. My dad passed away 5 months ago and Dale was at the house we was talking about when we was growing up, 5 month later Dale passes away. This is so hard to know that he is gone. I know he will be missed by his whole family and friends. If anyone of you all need anything please let us know. My family loves each and everyone of you all. May God be with you all in this time of need God is always there for us I could never live without God he is my everything.
Love Darlene and Family.

To Dale, Friends and Family.....My sincere condolences to Family and Friends. Dale was a neighbor with keen appreciation for nature and it's offerings and spent time appreciating things many people have never experienced.. I recently spoke with Dale who was always unassuming and forthright in conversation and I came away pleased for the contact. We will all miss him.
