My father was a great man. He devoted his life to his family and the Academy. He loved working on vehicles and boats. He opened his home to me after his sister passed away, and I could never repay him for his kindness, because there are no words or actions that is better than his. His family came as number one priority to him. He was a true family man. He will be missed greatly by all.

I am so sorry to hear this. Dale and I worked together for 27 years. He pushed me to be better at what I did and I learned a lot from him. RIP my friend.
