Dear Diehl Family: I would like to extend my deepest condolences to all of you in the passing of Uncle Dale. He and Fern were life long customers of Ironton Telephone Co which is where I got to know them. There are no words to ease the pain, sorrow and heartbreak. Keep all your bitter sweet memories in your heart for in time they will give you strength and courage to carry on. God Bless. Sincerely, Carolyn George
