Not sure what to say?

I did not know Mr. Andrews personally. I met him at my niece's wedding Ashley and Glen Whittaker . Ashley and Glen had the utmost respect for him as a husband,father and Grandfather. I know He was loved and will be missed by his precious family and friends. May God comfort those who loved him and miss him each day . Robin Hutcheson and Alexis

Icle and I enjoyed traveling with Dale back in the 60s when we were in the Heart of Huntsville Corvette club. Paula my prayers are with you.

A TRUE AMERICAN HERO. GOD SPEED.

So sorry for your loss. He will be missed. Dale was my supervisor at MSFC for 13 years. He got involved with his branch members, encouraging us to have fun activities and parties as a group that helped us become a "family". A "family" I hold dear to my heart today! Thank you, Dale, for making this possible.

Dale was my first manager I worked with at NASA/MSFC. His inspiration, great personality, made working with the wind tunnel bunch interesting and fun. He taught me so much as a young engineer. I will always remember the days that his boat was behind his tow vehicle in the parking lot. I am saddened by this news, and I must realize that the group of great rocket scientists at HSV is being reduced monthly to our aging group of workers and friends.

Dale was my supervisor for most of my career at NASA. He always encouraged young engineers to think for themselves and develop their skills. He was very supportive when my father passed away when I was 27. I will always remember him. I'll be thinking of you all, especially Paula and Clay.

Jan and I(Dales cousin)reconnected with Dale these last 3 years due to our mutual love of Corvettes. We went on several trips with him. We loved his dry wit and funny stories of the past. I always found him kind and loving life to the fullest. Heaven is richer today. We will continue to pray for Paula and Clay that God will give you comfort and peace in this difficult time.

Eleanor, so sorry to here of the loss of your brother. I never met him but I know he must have been a loving brother to you and my thoughts go to you and all the family

We are very sorry for your loss. Dale was extraordinary because of his wonderful character and Christian heart. Our whole family sends their condolences and prayers.
