He was a good man. He had pretty blue eyes with a silly laugh that was contagious. My best memories with him was when he would take my sister's and I swimming (all four of us) He loved to visit his grandchildren and great grandchildren. You be forever missed grandpa.

Dale always put smiles on the faces of my family! He would present wonderful advice with fun and laughter to the girls through their adolescent years. Over the years parental advice came along within those fun times. (Always had a way to cause laughter with the advice.)
We will always remember the delightful hospitality, fellowship, and support shared with us. Always will be in the memories of our hearts.

Love and prayers to the family.
