Dale was a Pied Piper for all children.

A mentor for all teens.

A gifted athlete for Northeast High-school.

A Quarterback for Bigger Jigger semi-pro team during his "Glory Days"

A Tank Commander for the Marines.

A 4 time "hole-in-one" golfer.

A Giver, never a Taker.

A gift from God to all of his family and friends.

And just a rock-solid good guy who was loved by all.
