Dear Jan and family,
I know this is very late, but I just saw the news of Dale's passing. You all were a stable family when I had no idea what that meant, Dale was a great guy who treated me like a good guy. So sorry to hear (belatedly) of his passing. Best to you, your kids and grandkids.

Jan - Coline and I just heard of Dale's passing. Please accept our sincere condolences. It's a shame that we lost track of each other all those years ago when we moved to Texas. We'd like to hear from you and catch up on lost time. ([email protected])

So sorry to hear of Dale's passing. I worked with him at Zoltek quite a few years ago. He really was brilliant and funny. I really enjoyed working with Dale. Great memories and a great white chicken chili recipe! : )
