I've always kept Dale and her family close to my heart. Dale and I go way way back when we were little kids playing kickball, jack stones marbles, pickup sticks, old maids, bolo bat, hop scotch, four square and making mud pies. 4 things I knew about Dale.
1. She loved being barefootted.
2. She was our neighborhood clown.
3. Comedian
4. and Jokester
Dale and I marched in many parades together all round Florida. We was really heartbroken when she left Tampa and we're heartbroken, now that she's gone to the upper room to be with our Lord, family, and friends. Trust me we will meet again, because that's an appointment none of us can miss. Dale and her family will forever be in my family's heart.

Much Love From My Family
To Yours
