Not sure what to say?

I have many memories of uncle Dale and his influence on me as a kid growing up. Most memorable was his sense of humor. West High was playing Jordan High (who had a 6´10" all star) and after the game Dale said "I held him to 4 points but I fouled out early in the second quarter". He was my idol. I even had my Mom and grandma Flitton give me a permanent and die my hair black so I could look like him Dale was the last of the Flitton aunts and uncles and he will surely be missed

While we were getting our brand new home, my parents, (Glen and Betty), my brother and I stayed at grandma Flitton`s house and I remember getting up in the morning and watching uncle Dale eat Wheaties every morning for breakfast. He was a teenager then and had a zest for life, I always remember his laugh .

As a little boy I remember uncle Dale putting me up on his shoulders. I thought he was the tallest person I'd ever seen. Our condolences to the family. Gordon and Candy Flitton (Glen's son)

Becky, Brenda & Family, Sending my condolences for the loss of your sweet Dad. I hold so many treasured memories of childhood days shared with your beautiful family. May you find comfort in the memories of your amazing father. Such a wonderful man!
