Not sure what to say?

I have nothing really new to add, except that I think of both Dale and John often as I watch the continuing transformation of The South in general, and Chapel Hill in particular.

How well suited and complementary to each...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

I was saddened to learn of Dale's passing from a mutual friend. On behalf of my wife LaWanda and myself, let me say that we will always treasure the memory of being graciously invited to dinner by John and Dale. The two of them epitomize the better things the South has to offer!

With the vast array of All Things Exquisite that your daughter, Elisabeth, travels the Earth with, I now see from your signature radiance where she got some of her earliest modeling. I am so very happy you were all able to find your way to each other for that last magnificent Aria together. With Love and exceeding Grace to you, your continued heart's journey and that of all your loved ones. It has been such a gift to read about your life, legacy and loves. Erika Ebbeson

Our hearts and prayers to Dale and family. May she rest in that Peace which has created this world.
