To the Gamble family: this news came to me as a shock as we were looking forward to seeing him again the next time we come to Oakdale. We loved his candid sense of humor (expect anything). Dale was a one of a kind person and I know he will be missed by many. My sympathies to Dale's family and know we are keeping you in prayer over this especially heavy time.

Dear Huck, Brenda, Cindi, Pam and Lynnie and family, I am so very sorry to hear that Dale has passed away. My fondest memories of him are when we worked at the store together and how funny Dale was. He always made me laugh. I remember Dale when he was just a little boy. My Dad used to tell me how funny he was and what a sweet kid he was. May God Bless you all.❤

What a loss! Great guy, great laugh, and a true character! My favorite memory of Dale was in 79 in his basement room listening to the new stones album (some girl's) and his alarm clock went off,
It was a car horn hooked up to the old clock radio! I laughed till I cried. Wish I could have had one more laugh with him. My symphony to the Gamble family and all who love him. Rest easy my friend.

We were going to be married soon but I wish it were sooner as I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. You are my soulmate and I cannot wait to see you again in God's perfect heaven. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER!! ❤❤

I want to express my deep sorrows for the family of Dale, he was as fine a man as they come, a verry humbel, generous, loving man, whom it was an honour, and a pleasure to know, and made an even better friend, of which he had many, because of the love he showed all he knew, love you Dale.

Dale was loved by my whole family! My memories of him will always be met with a smile! Honest to a fault , hilarious, kind , and always had a funny story to tell! Now he can walk with our Lord and laugh with him in perfect peace and free of all the heaviness this world can bring at times. No more sorrow , no more pain , no more struggles. Only those of us that are left behind will suffer the absence of his presence on earth... but only for a while and we will meet again in laughter n joy. The one thing that we always laughed about was the water battle at Huck n Brenda's, and Dale dumping a bucket of water on our heads out of the kitchen window on Bridge Street lol... Brenda came home to clean floors lol ... That's our Dale! We all love you so much ! See you as soon as God wills ... Love Nikki

Sending prayers, ❤, (((hugs))) and peace from my family to yours!!
