On February 23, 1974, he married Janis Ann Gervais at St. Mary's Church in Sault Ste. Marie, MI. Dale was employed at a Marchetti Distributors keeping warehouse inventory.

He was a wonderful friend to so many of which I am proud I am one. First met him back in the old Red Owl days. Have so many memories and am glad he was part of my life. He was loved by my entire family. Much love to Janis and the rest of his family.
