God Speed, Dale. What fun we all had with "Beetle" Bailey in the Nation's Number 1 High Band!" I shall always remeber your smile, your keen sense of humor, but most of all, your kind and generous spirit. Now you are at rest and peace at last. To Nedra and the family, it was a high privilege to call dale "FRIEND." He will long be remembered and will live in our hearts as in yours. May you find peace and comfort in the shared joys of over more than a half century together. Psalm 23.
