He has a wonderful sister, Tiffany (Trent) Gwinn and a very special brother-in-law, Josh Gwinn.

Dale was the pride and joy of his family and was cared for every day by his loving family. Words can never express how deeply he was loved. We will miss him every day as caring for him was our utmost priority and privilege. We were blessed with him for 32 wonderful years.

He brought out the best in all of us, making us better and molding us into the people we are today. We will forever be thankful for his presence in each of our lives.

Dale had two very special Aunts, who would drop everything to be there for him. Aunts Lori A. Kokinda and Diane Kokinda were his angels on this earth. Dale was also cared for by his Grandpa, Richard J. Kokinda his entire life. A lifetime of selfless love and care by his very best friend.

Dale was preceded in death by his Grandmother, Jeanne Kokinda and Grandfather, Dale Trent, Grandma Jeanne and Grandpa Trent will welcome him into eternal life where he will walk, talk, and play baseball, while they cheer him on.

Also left to cherish his memory are numerous cousins, and special cousins Zach and Jake Kokinda, who gave lovingly and selflessly and were here at a moment's notice to help their Aunt Kim and Uncle Dale with whatever was needed.

Dale is also survived by Grandmother, Beatrice Trent, Aunts, Lori A. Kokinda, Sharon (Dave) Bacak, Vanessa (Paul) Kellog, Ramona (Henry) Sivinski, Theresa (Keith) Hartlaub and Beverly Whitten, Uncles, Richard M. (Diane) Kokinda and Darryl (Tracy) Trent.
