Sorry to hear about Dale's passing. Delivered his Mother's mail for years and we had some good visits in the front yard there! Also, after he moved to Ardmore, he lived on my route and got to visit with him more often. He was a great guy and I really enjoyed knowing him! Condolences and prayers to Johnny and the rest of the family! God Bless!
