Dale Jacoby Obituary

Dale P. Jacoby, 59, of Lehigh Twp., passed away unexpectedly on Saturday, September 6, 2025 at Lehigh Valley Hospital - Muhlenberg. He was the beloved husband of Nancy Jacoby (Van Norman) to whom he was married to for 20 years this past August. Born in Fountain Hill, Dale was a son of the late Erwin and Betty Jane Jacoby (Henning). Dale worked as a Tri Axle Truck Driver for Horwith Trucking - Northampton. Previously, he worked for Fairfield Property Management - Palmer Twp.

Dale was a proud U.S. Marine who exemplified strength and loyalty. He poured his heart into everything he did, from nurturing a flourishing garden of tomatoes to sharing cherished moments fishing with his daughter, Brandi. Family was of utmost importance to Dale; he took great pride in his children and celebrated each of their accomplishments with unyielding love and support.

A true enthusiast, Dale had a keen interest in his gun collection, which he treated with the same care and passion that he brought to all aspects of his life. Known for his kind-hearted nature and good spirit, Dale touched the lives of everyone around him and will be remembered as an overall good man.

He will be lovingly remembered by his children: Dale Jacoby (Adriana) of Orlando, FL, Brett Jacoby (Yui) of Greensburg, PA, Christal Cavaiuolo (Carlo) of Yeadon, PA and Brandi Fisher of Nazareth; grandsons: Dalewin and Dean; sister: Doreen Moser, of Bath along with many nieces and nephews. Dale is predeceased by siblings: David Jacoby, Daniel Jacoby, Donald Jacoby and Debra Teske.


In accordance with Dale's wishes, no formal services will be held. Family and friends are invited to a visitation to pay their respects on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, from 6:00 to 7:30 PM at the GEORGE G. BENSING FUNERAL HOME, INC., 2165 Community Drive, Bath, PA 18014.
