I have so many memories of Dale and the family, I remember running into Dink when I was working as a Diver in the Tri-City. Dale never had any enemies.

Dale was always a leader of the class of 1970. As well as important part of University Auto. He will be missed by both.

He always had a happy smile and remembered people (me) after not running into him for a long time. He was definitely a bright spot in this world!

Kathy and family, I was so sad to hear about Dale!! I have been remembering all the great times we had way back when when the guys were playing softball. A lot of time we spent together. What I remember most was Dale's smile and how he was always laughing. He made get togethers truly fun! Know you have been in my thoughts and prayers and am sending hugs your way.
