You've not been gone long but your spirit will live on and on. Your warm smile, easy laugh was so freely given. You were a wonderful brother in law and an awesome husband to my sister. Through the years there are so many memories that we have of you. I am so glad to have known you and called you my family. You will be missed and grieved over but you will not be forgotten. I love you Dale.
