Not sure what to say?

We love you Sue. I know you're a strong lady. May Dale fly with the angels and find comfort in the Lord's arms, much love Lori Anderson

I was saddened to learn of Dale's passing. We went to Bisbee High together. He was so supportive when Wally died. My family will never forget his kindness and genuine sencerity. I send my prayers and healing thoughts to Dale's family. He was loved and will be missed by so many.

My thoughts & prayers to Jane & family. We have lost an incredible human being. Dale greeted everyone with a smile & an outstretched hand. I don't think anyone could meet him without feeling they had made a genuine friend. I feel blessed to have known Dale while attending Chandler Schools, as a parent and also former district employee. God needed the best so He chose Dale.

Deepest sympathies to the Hancock family. Dale was a legend for our time and for Bisbee. He is missed.

Jane,Brian,Shane,Shad and Summer - - Diane and I are praying that God will surround you with love and comfort during the tragic loss of your husband, dad and granddad. He was a great man and we treasure the friendship we had with him over the years. Diane grew up with him and his family in Bisbee and I enjoyed working with him in Chandler for my whole teaching career. I felt very honored when he recruited me to teach for him at San Marcos but I was enjoying my position at the Jr High too...

Vaya Con Dios, Amigo

Mr. Hancock was the principal who first hired me to work for CUSD - he was the best boss I ever had. I will always remember his kindness and the confidence he had in all of us (his staff at San Marcos Elementary). My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

Mr. Dale Hancock will always hold a special place in my heart! Because of him I have many pictures of my sons Mark and Luke when they played basketball at Queek Creek High School. Mr. Hancock went beyond taking pictures, he even went out of his way to drop off some CD's at NBJH for me. They don't come much better than Mr. Dale Hancock, we lost a good one! My sincere condolences to his family.

I was Dale's secretary from 1973 to 1981 both in AJ and Chandler. He taught me so much and I loved him dearly. He was a BIG man, not only in size. I cannot say enough wonderful things about him. My love and prayers to his family. Vera McKinney Ferguson
